Summary

"Fugue" by Stephen Marlowe is a science fiction narrative where humans, divided into mutants and non-mutants, exist on a space ark hurtling through the cosmos for countless years, and tells the story of a bio-technician named Ker-jon whose troubling dreams ignite a spark of rebellion against the Mutant-makers—the oppressive ruling class. Betrayal and shifting allegiances force Ker-jon to confront not only his identity but also the unsettling possibility that his revolution might simply exchange one tyranny for another where the action culminates in a violent clash that births unexpected partnerships and throws into question the nature of authority. By the story's end, they embrace cooperation, shared understanding, and unity, moving towards a promising future as they unravel the mysteries of their voyage through space.
