Children of Time author and Arthur C. Clarke award winner presents an amazing space opera about humanity on the verge of extinction and how a single man's discovery has the power to either save or destroy humanity.
The conflict has ended. Its heroes are lost to memory. Up until one accidental finding...
Ever since they recreated Idris during the battle, he has not aged or slept. And today, in order to escape the notice of more powerful nations, one of humanity's heroes makes ends meet on a freelance rescue vessel.
To preserve their species after the destruction of the world, humans developed a fighting elite, including augmented humans like Idris. They could converse with the enemy mind-to-mind in the quiet of space. Then the Architects, their extraterrestrial invaders, just vanished, rendering Idris and his race obsolete.
Fifty years later, Idris and his team have found an unusual object left behind in space. It's obvious that the Architects created it, but are they coming back? If yes, what would be the reason? Idris and his team speed around the galaxy in search of answers while being pursued by thugs, cults, and governments. Because they now own something that many would kill to have, something of immeasurable value.
