Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – January 2nd
I did no official work this past week. (grins) I read romance novels, spent valuable time with the Dear Wonderful Hubby, chatted with friends, snuggled under the covers, slept in every day.
It was glorious and restorative and my muse is now in hyper mode.
I will be working on the first draft of Provoking Odium, the first story in the new cyborg romance series (releasing in June), this week.
I hope to also get edits back for Seizing Power, the fifth core Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in February). The final file should be loaded in a couple weeks, before my self-assigned one month cut off.
Be adventurous this week, my friends. (big hugs) Read the description of a book you wouldn’t usually read. Look at the menu of a restaurant you have never frequented. Listen to a discussion outside your normal interests. I’m told doing things like this keeps us young and I want you to live forever!

Seizing Power
This cyborg believes he’s in control.
Power is the self-appointed leader of the cyborg council. Other members might debate situations. He makes the ultimate decisions.
When a threat to the Homeland is revealed, he takes command of a fleet and ventures to the edge of cyborg-controlled space to investigate. He finds a rebellion led by a mysterious upstart he calls Cadet.
The plan Power derives is simple—he’ll quickly quash the uprising and teach its leader a lesson the warrior will never forget.
NO ONE challenges his authority.
Eirene Ours might have been called a cadet by Power but she is NOT his subordinate. She is the arrogant E Model’s genetic match.
For much of her mature lifespan, she has desired the male, yearning for his dark-eyed gaze, craving his sure hands, longing for his respect.
That esteem was never granted. And Eirene Ours can no longer wait to earn it. There’s an external threat to their kind, a danger that might destroy them all.
Having lured Power to her home terrain, she now plans to use everything within her means – her fists, her daggers, her ship-destroying missiles – to pound that truth into her stubborn warrior’s thick metal skull.
The future of every cyborg is at stake. She can’t fail them.
Power will believe her. Or he will die.
***
Seizing Power is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features an epic battle between two equally strong cyborg leaders, plans that go terribly yet passionately wrong, and a love that will shake the entire universe.

Thank You For A Wonderful 2021!
Thank you so much for being part of my life and part of the Dear Wonderful Hubby’s life in 2021!
(big hugs)
2021 wasn’t all smooth sailing. (laughs semi-hysterically) But wow, it had some wonderful moments, moments I’ll never forget. Books were written, released and read. Many of you reached out to me during the year and I loved hearing from you. We shared some bad jokes and had some good laughs.
2022 will be even better! I can’t wait for you to read Seizing Power. I’m working on Provoking Odium, the first story in the new cyborg series. I have that awesome idea for the alien romance. There are writing buddies, some of my favorite writers on the planet, working on super cool alien romance and cyborg romance releases. I’m looking forward to reading those stories.
We’ll have some fun in this new year!

Seizing Power And The Rebel Forces
Seizing Power, the fifth core story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in February), is a clash of two factions – the Rebel Cyborgs situated on Mercury Minor and the Cyborg Council Cyborgs situated on the Cyborg Homeland.
Power and the Cyborg Council Cyborgs have the numbers. They have millions of warriors, all loyal (for now) to them. Power has reasons (other than arrogance) to not be concerned.
Cadet/Eirene Ours and the Rebel Cyborgs have the loyalty of the cyborgs they’ve rescued, some skilled humans and humanoids on their side, and alliances with the Retrievers and the Modified Humanoids. They also have favors they can call in and they have the advantage that they know almost everything about their opponents.
The two factions are both formidable. There will be no easy victories for either side.

Seizing Power And Standalones
Most of my stories, although set in a large complex world, can be read on their own. New-to-me readers can start with any of those stories and can follow their plots and enjoy the romance.
That’s not true of Seizing Power, the fifth core story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in February). It is SUCH a connected story. There are so many beings facing off on each side of the conflict between the cyborgs on Mercury Minor and the cyborgs on the Homeland.
I think it would be confusing for new readers to start with this story.
I like to view Seizing Power as being a story written solely for series readers. You know who Power is. You know who Eirene Ours/Cadet is. You know Rage and Joan and Intrepid and the modified humanoids, the retrievers. This is a story written with you in mind.

Seizing Power – Cover And Description Reveal
Woot! I have a cover for Seizing Power. I have also crafted a very preliminary, completely unedited book description for this story. The description will likely change as it is a tad bit long. I was too excited about this story to keep its description short and snappy. (sheepish grin)
The cover was crafted by the always awesome Amanda Kelsey from Razzle Dazzle Design. I think Power looks a bit like Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation, don’t you?
