Children of the consortium. Recorder 1

Summary: "Recorder has no family, no friends, and no name. Donated to the Consortium before birth, her sole purpose is to maintain and verify the records. A neural implant and drone ensure compliance, punishing for displays of bias. Suddenly cut off from controlling technology, Recorder tastes what it means to be human. But if the Consortium discovers her feelings, everyone she knows will be in danger. With no name, no resources, and only an infinitesimal possibility of escape, Recorder's time is running out" -- Inside cover jacket.

Content descriptions

General Note:

In a far-future time wherein human beings have found homes among the stars, Recorders are human-machine hybrids who were selected as children and charged with keeping accurate records of human events. They are implanted with chips that condition them to become less emotional and more analytical; they are rendered mere observers of humanitys struggles, and are followed by drones that keep them in check. For Recorders, emotional attachments are to be avoided: there is nothing more dangerous for a Recorder than a friend.
