Remnant: Beyond Galactic Empire
Humanity is dying, and the golden-eyed people destined to succeed it are already being hunted. Rosy Tang must bring them together before fear-and an enemy from beyond the universe-destroy humanity's last hope.
Two years after Shawna Tang entered the realm of the Archoi to slow humanity's extinction, her daughter Rosy is struggling to accept the mission left to her. With extraordinary telepathic powers and the ability to teleport across interstellar distances, she must find the emerging Forerunners and gather those capable of establishing a peaceful new human species.
But Rosy does not want to exist only as humanity's Chosen One. Raised aboard starships, she longs for a normal life she can claim as her own-a life with freedom, romance, and perhaps a family. When she falls in love with starship captain Kelly Bohannon, he comes to represent that chosen life. Yet Rosy fears that revealing what she is and what she must do will cause him to see only a Forerunner instead of the woman he loves.
Her search for the Forerunners leads her to Samantha, an orphaned telepath who has survived by deception, and to golden-eyed children threatened by the very people who should protect them. Together, Rosy and Samantha begin building a hidden refuge called Esperance. But as reports of the Forerunners spread, fear hardens into persecution. Federation leaders debate registration and quarantine while powerful officials prepare to capture and study the new humans.
An even greater danger is already searching for Rosy. Hermes appears human, but he serves Ur, a power opposed to the Archoi and determined to use the Forerunners against the order of the universe. Able to bend other minds without their knowledge, Hermes may turn Rosy's growing community-and Rosy herself-into his instruments.
Rosy possesses powers few can resist, but power cannot tell her whom to trust or how to lead. Caught between the calling inherited from her mother and the ordinary human future she has chosen with Kelly, she must master her gifts without surrendering her humanity, confront an enemy who can make captives of minds, and discover whether her two life paths can ever become one.
Remnant concludes the Telpher series with interstellar adventure, telepathy, political persecution, romance, family, cosmic conflict, and the emergence of a new human species. For the fullest experience of Rosy's story and Shawna's legacy, begin with Telpher: A Time Travel Anomaly.
