If you loved Dune, Foundation or Ender's Game, you'll love the first novel in this epic, galaxy-spanning series.
"Kirwan’s writing is crisp and vivid, whether describing taut battle scenes, unfamiliar technology, or interpersonal moments... Kirwan's imagination seems boundless..." - Kirkus Reviews
"This author should win the HUGO award for producing the best science fiction I have read in the last thirty years." Susan Yea
In 2063, Earth's overheated climate and war-ravaged cities are near breaking point. A new habitable planet is discovered within reach, but the first two missions have failed to return. This is the story of the third mission to Eden.
What really awaits the crew of four as they make the long journey to this supposed uninhabited virgin planet, and what is the link to the secret 900 year old sect known as Alicians back on Earth? While Blake leads the Eden mission, a young researcher named Micah discovers a terrible truth that threatens the very existence of humanity.
