Throwback Thursday – Defying Death

By Cynthia Sax on October 1, 2026

I think it is extremely fitting that the first story I’m featuring on this site in October, a month I associate with ghosts and spooky things, has a cyborg hero who named himself Death.

(grins)

Death does view himself as a bringer of death. He was manufactured to kill and that is all he believes he can do.

Until he meets a curvaceous human medic. She is intent on healing everyone around her…including Death himself.

Defying Death

He’ll risk it all for one moment of happiness.

Cyborgs don’t show emotion. Death learned that lesson early in his long lifespan. To survive, he hides his fierce passions behind a stoic wall. He calls no warrior friend. He never admits to caring for any being.

Even the human female he’s destined to love.

Tifara is Death’s obsession, his sole opportunity for happiness, to express the all-consuming passion burning brightly inside him. He’ll do anything to obtain the curvaceous medic: defy a direct order, abduct Tifara from her battle station, and wage war on his fellow cyborgs.

To earn her love, he’ll have to risk much, much more.
