La esperada novela superventas ganadora del Hugo, finalista al Nebula y en la estela de Dune, Fundación y La llegadaCuando la embajadora Mahit Dzmare llega al centro del multisistema imperio teixcalaanli, descubre que su predecesor, el anterior embajador de su pequeña y ferozmente independiente estacion minera, ha muerto en extrañas circunstancias. Y nadie parece dispuesto a admitir lo innegable: su muerte no ha sido accidental y ella podria ser la siguiente.En medio de la tensa atmosfera que se respira en los niveles mas altos de la corte imperial, Mahit debe averiguar quien esta detras del asesinato y proteger su estacion de la incesante expansion de Teixcalaan, al mismo tiempo que investiga una fascinante cultura alienigena, manipula sus engranajes politicos y se esfuerza por preservar el letal secreto tecnologico que esconde; uno que podria rescatar su estacion de la aniquilacion... o sepultarla para siempre.Una memoria llamada imperio es una impresionante epopeya espacial sobre la colonizacion de un imperio con ecos del bizantino y el maya, pero tambien sobre la forma en que las diferentes lenguas moldean el pensamiento (al mas puro estilo de La llegada), los conflictos de sucesion (con tintes de Dune) y la investigacion de un asesinato dentro de un apasionante entramado politico en una civilizacion tan remota y cercana como la de Fundacion.
