Kage Baker (Coyote céleste, Dans le jardin d'Iden) vient de mettre un point final à sa série Company avec le roman The Sons of Heaven, une série dans laquelle les deux principaux héros sont des cyborgs.
Il revient dans une interview sur l'idée de base de Company :
The idea for the Company series came to Baker while on an eight-hour bus trip, which afforded her the time to stare out the window and daydream, she said. "A story about time travelers began to evolve," Baker said. "The idea is that there [once] existed a Victorian-era cabal of scientists working toward a sort of benign world domination through technology. ... At the beginning of the 24th century, this group re-formed as Dr. Zeus Inc., when they made the twin breakthroughs of discovering the secrets of time travel and immortality."
Et il parle de ses personnages :
"The two principal protagonists are cyborgs: the Botanist Mendoza and her father-in-immortality, the Facilitator Joseph, Baker said. "[Mendoza] watched her mortal lover die in 1555 and never got over it, and blames Joseph; Joseph is the ultimate Company man, a slimy little manipulator until he discovers he has principles after all and is forced to go rogue," she said. "Both of them, using different methods, bring about the Company's downfall." "
