The Voyage of the Sable Keech by Neal Asher
A walking dead man, the only one ever to have been resurrected by nanochanger, goes by the name Sable Keech. The question remains: Was his success related to being infected by the Spatterjay virus, or due to his late arrival to resurrection in a tank of seawater? Taylor Bloc wants to know everything about Sable Keech's journey--tracing and following his last steps. Moreover, Bloc is hungry for glory, power, and control. He'll do anything just to get the answers he seeks. A hive mind from the ancient days, almost unlike anything from the human race, has sent an agent to Spatterjay. If the mind has set its sights on the lethal poison--sprine--then Janer must find and stop it before it's too late. The strangest journey begins for the immortal Erlin when her solitude is rudely interrupted by an aggressive whelkus titanicus. Of course, anything is interesting if suffering the abysmal repercussions of immortality. Deep below the sea, remnants of the Spatterjay virus undergo a terrible mutation that will affect everyone. After ten long years, something dormant deep within the ocean is breaking free. Once more, the aftershocks of an ancient war will hit this watery world. For ten years, Sniper has been the Warden of Spatterjay. Now he finally takes delivery of his brand-new drone shell--a satisfactory version of the obsolete model. Powerful engines. Lethal weapons. Thicker armor. He'll need them.
