Book Overview
Nine years of tranquility came to an abrupt end when a M ridien starship entered the Hell bore system, sounding a dire warning for Alex Racine, the Haraken president. Unwanted visitors had arrived again. But this time, they're not alien; they're human.
Claiming to have followed the course of a colony ship launched a millennium ago when Earth wrestled with resource wars and climate change, the mission commander, Antonio Garc a, requests a meeting with the planet's leaders. The Earthers profess a kinship with all humans, and their great desire is to have M ridien join their United Earth (UE).
Alex Racine journeys to M ridien to investigate and uncover the Earthers' intentions. In the Haraken world, SADEs (self-aware digital entities) have been freed from their boxes aboard the M ridien-built starships. The mobile SADEs are powerful players in Alex's strategies, inventing ingenious methods to investigate the Earthers and their ship.
Complicating matters, the M ridien leadership is in turmoil. The Council Leader insists her people ignore the Earthers, but this path has costs. As tensions escalate, Garc a sends a request for support to his superiors back on Earth, lest his discovery of the rich, M ridien worlds, boasting unbelievable advanced technology, slip through his grasp. A UE battleship heeds the call, escalating the pressure for action.
Join the journey as the Harakens and M ridiens work together to protect their planets and their way of life from the newest invaders.
