Acerca de este libro electrónico

The sole survivors of the human race... and their time is running out.

In the wake of Earth’s fall, Peter Alander has just one choice: to use the alien Gifts left behind on his distant colony world to warn other missions of their impending demise, a second wave of alien ships, this time intent on destroying everything in their path. Without the Gifts, humanity would have no hope at all--although no one truly understands them, and it is becoming increasingly certain that the very use of them is what draws the enemy on.

Out of the dark comes help from an entirely unexpected quarter. Peter Alander and his fellow survivors are not the only victims of the terrible Starfish. But what if the cost of that help is too high? What if the price is humanity itself?

“This book shines” —Cinescape

Acerca del autor

Sean Williams writes for children, young adults, and adults. He is the author of forty novels, ninety short stories, and the odd odd poem, and has also written in universes created by other people, such as those of Star Wars and Doctor Who. His work has won awards, debuted at number one on the New York Times bestseller list, and been translated into numerous languages. His latest novel is Twinmaker, the first in a new series that takes his love affair with the matter transmitter to a whole new level (he just received a PhD on the subject, so don’t get him started).

Shane Dix is an Australian author who became obsessed with science fiction at the age of twelve after reading Robert A. Heinlein’s “By His Bootstraps.” Dix has had short stories published in or on the likes of Aurealis, Eidolon.net, Twenty3: A Miscellany, and Alien Shores: An Anthology of Australian Science Fiction. He is best known for his collaborative work on the Star Wars: New Jedi Order series with Sean Williams. His accolades include but are not limited to the Aurealis Award in 2001 and three Ditmar Awards in 2001, 2003, and 2006.
