"You died not when you expired, but when your life was neatly packed away."

That's at the start of the novel. Actually, a lot of people die very soon after, and not very neatly, either.

The Burning LifeThe novel is called EVE: The Burning Life, and it's out now in the UK and very soon in the US (March 30th). As per the title it takes place in EVE, or New Eden rather, and tells the story of ...

Well, in one way it's the story of two people who go through a boatload of hurt, but it's also a story about the empires, and the pirate factions, and how all of us reading this have come to dominate their world. It's almost a travelogue: We get to see Gallentean bodymod conferences, Amarrian convents, Caldari Mind Clash games, and a strange Minmatar exodus. There are the Angels, all marching in step; and Guristas, living their crazy lives. There are the Sansha, in their quiet metal hell. And the Sisters of EVE, trying to save a few souls along the way. They're important to the story.

It's a novel about revenge and redemption, about putting away old things - or settling scores, depending on who you ask - and moving on. About change, really, which is a concept every EVE player will be intimately familiar with. We're good at adapting to new circumstances. We're also pretty good at revenge.
