Overview

Rio de Janeiro, 2040. With the rise of the Reborn, death is no longer the end, but the price to return to life can be higher than anyone imagines. Gia, a young trans woman who sought eternal rest, wakes from a voluntary overdose in a dystopian reality. Her body and mind are now tormented by fragmented memories of a police officer she never came to know. Targeted by illegal experiments-both private and governmental-she discovers that her rebirth was not an accident, but a project. Together with unlikely allies, like her friend Levi and Officer Renata, Gia must navigate a society on the brink of civil war and the labyrinth of her own consciousness. In a world where technology reconstructs memories but consumes flesh, the truth behind Gia's life proves more dangerous than death itself. How far would you go to find out if your thoughts are really your own? ""ULTRA QUALIA - Book 1, Side A"" is the opening chapter of an epic duology. A visceral immersion into the technology, philosophy, and social complexities of a future that is already knocking at the door. Genre: Hard Science Fiction / Dystopian Thriller.

Author Information

I'm Leonardo Sales Santos, also known as TRACK_N10, a multifaceted creator who finds in art a free space to experiment, provoke, and transform. I am autistic and gifted, characteristics that shape my unique way of thinking, feeling, and expressing the world around me. In writing, I dedicate myself to science fiction with complex narratives loaded with psychosocial issues. My books are invitations to explore alternative realities that, deep down, reflect our own social and emotional structures. In Ultra Qualia and Intrusive Thoughts, for example, I delve deep into existentialist themes, proposing a reading that challenges, unsettles, and invites reflection. In music, I sign as TRACK_N10 and produce a mixture of genres ranging from the most intense techno to contemporary neoclassical, passing through hyperpop, phonk, and experimental IDM. I started my writing journey at age 15, and at 18, I deepened my studies in screenwriting at the International Academy of Cinema. Since then, I have combined my passion for narrative with my academic background in Marketing, including a postgraduate degree in the area.
