Produktbeschreibung

Un visitante misterioso de otro mundo despierta a una mujer joven y ambiciosa en medio de la noche para proponerle una oferta intrigante después de casi asustarla de muerte. Explica que su raza se está muriendo, ya que las mujeres en su mundo distante no pueden llevar a término embriones de su especie. Si ella está dispuesta a servir como madre sustituta de un embrión por un período de gestación acelerado de unas pocas semanas, él promete otorgarle el regalo de la telepatía por el resto de su vida a cambio de su servicio. Como un bono adicional, el embrión proporcionará un impulso a su sistema inmunológico que la hará prácticamente impermeable a todas las enfermedades por el resto de su vida. Si ella acepta, ¿se harán todos sus sueños finalmente realidad, o vivirá para lamentar su elección?

Este es uno de los diez cuentos originalmente publicados por el autor en Mindscapes: Ten Science Fiction and Speculative Fiction Short Stories y en Book of Dreams: Science Fiction and Speculative Fiction Short Stories. Esta traducción de ingles al español es también del autor.
