The Dalek's Heart: A Tale of Forbidden Love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798295626340)

In a universe built on extermination, one impossible malfunction changes everything.

The Dalek's Heart: A Tale of Forbidden Love is a gothic science-fiction tragedy that explores what happens when a creature engineered without emotion begins to feel. When two human prisoners-Jenny and Raul-are captured aboard a Dalek warship, their fate is already sealed. Yet one Dalek unit assigned to guard them experiences a catastrophic internal anomaly: the emergence of forbidden emotional responses that spread through its neural core like a living infection.

As extermination orders close in and replacement units approach, the Dalek faces an unthinkable conflict between programming and something terrifyingly new-attachment. Watching the fragile bond between the two humans awaken unfamiliar impulses, the machine begins to question the only purpose it has ever known. But love inside a system built for destruction cannot survive without consequences.

Set against a bleak, metallic battlefield of warships, corridors, and dying stars, this haunting psychological horror romance tells a devastating story of sacrifice, identity, and the cost of feeling something you were never meant to feel. Sometimes the most terrifying rebellion is not against an empire-but against the self.
