Never Fade Away
Six months fly by after the biggest job of V's life. After escaping Arasaka with her life, and without Johnny Silverhand, she navigates through this new unknown with an expiration date and apathy. What will it take for her to fight for life once again? - Think of this a near lore-accurate continuation/alt universe after The Sun ending, mixed with a romance between V and the one and only Johnny Silverhand. Phantom Liberty items are not mentioned. Some items of Edgerunners are mentioned, but like the mentions in game - not lore heavy. I'm breaking this book into three parts, so buckle up chooms. It's gonna be a wild ride. Though there may not be any true good endings to Cyberpunk in the game, this one... might be.
