Death was inefficient, but inefficiency was death. This belief is engraved into the core of every Reaver, a race of artificial beings created to evaluate the civilizations of the galaxy and exterminate those deemed without purpose or benefit. To the Reavers, souls are a finite resource, too valuable to be wasted on doomed worlds. Yet they are not exempt from their own scrutiny. Every droid must justify its existence. For the Commander, that purpose is simple: eliminate inefficiency. That certainty falters during a routine extermination mission on the planet Haul, when a being from another world hurls the Commander through a portal, stranding him in a medieval realm of sword and sorcery. Fifteen years later, his damaged body is recovered drifting in space and reactivated by a maintenance droid who demands an account of his absence. As the Commander recounts his journey, the two must determine whether he was still a tool of efficiency—or has he become something else. What to Expect >The story's initial pitch was "Genndy Tartakovsky's General Grievous joins the Fellowship of the Ring". >"Reaver" was outlined to be a ~100k-word Sci-Fi Fantasy novel, so expect a slower start. > First-person perspective.
