Susan has waited for over a thousand years, safely stored in one of the Rosetta Stones. Our cities have crumbled and machines have rusted away, yet the Stones remain. Her mission is to help humans rebuild civilization. A nomadic tribe awakens Susan, starting a journey that will change the world. She reprograms living cells to make a new body for herself. She meets religious orders, expanding empires, other Stones and a global power to rival her own. Susan uses beauty and intelligence to influence the course of human events, preferring to fight in the bedroom rather than the battlefield. She must prevent a planetary dictatorship, even if that requires her own destruction.
