Science Fiction Space Opera
When the post-human Next suddenly re-appear in a solar
system that banished them, humans are
threatened. Their reactions vary from disgust and anger to
yearning to live forever like the powerful Next,
who are casually building a new city out of starships in the
heart of the re-wilded planet Lym. The first
families of Lym must deal with being invaded while they
grapple with their own inner fears. Ranger Charlie Windar is desperate to save his beloved
planet. The Next are building strange cities he never
imagined, and other humans who want to destroy the Next are
his worst enemies. Ambassador Nona Hall strives to forge links between the
powerful station she's from, The Diamond Deep,
and the people of Lym. The formidable merchant Gunnar
Ellensson appears to be up to no good, and as
usual his motivations are suspect. Why is he sending ships
to Lym, and what does he intend to do with them
when he arrives? The Shining Revolution threatens to undo everything by
attacking the Next on Lym, and their desire to
eradicate the post-humans is greater than their desire to
save humanity's home. It is entirely possible that
they will draw the wrath of the Next onto all of humanity. In the meantime, the Next's motives remain inscrutable. Why
are they here at all? What do they want? Why
are they interested in the ancient past of a planet that has
been ravaged and rebuilt at least once?
