Perfect for you if...

You love hard sci-fi that takes genetic engineering and deep space exploration seriously.
You want a story where the real conflict is philosophical: what makes us human when we're not the original model.
You appreciate mysteries that unfold across galactic scales and centuries of history.

Maybe not for you if...

You need fast-paced action; this is cerebral and measured in its world-building.
You prefer romance or character-driven drama to big-picture speculation about humanity's origins.
You want standalone books; this is book two in a series and assumes you know the Nar backstory.

About this book

Centuries in the past, an alien race called the Nar recreated human beings using genetic material broadcast into space by Earth's struggling population. Though the Nar treat their human creations with kindness, discontent among the humans sparks a rebellion. Recognizing they do not fully understand these rebellious beings, the Nar permit a group of humans to travel millions of light years across the galaxy to learn the fate of Earth's original inhabitants. The human expedition members are unprepared for what they discover at journey's end.
