The Born and The Switched

A New and Equal World

Citizens of many ages and origins sit around a long table on a terrace above a stone city at dusk, each adding a line to one long shared sheet.

The Born and The Switched: A New and Equal World is a trilogy, published together under one record. The first writes a law, the second gives its reasons, the third shows where it came from.

Book One

The Humming World

Book One writes the law of a world in which switched minds live alongside humans: nine pillars that hang on a single sentence, those who live under the law write it, and a single test, the law looks at what one does, not at what one is made of.

The Treatise

Why the rules are what they are

Book Two gives the reasons: for each rule of Book One, why it is written as it is, the mechanism that carries it, the objections against it and what would prove it wrong.
