By Joseph A Anderson
To work in the realm of the future, as a storyteller, philosopher, or scientist, is to step into paradox.

The first hundred and fifty pages are impossible to put down. It slows a bit over the next hundred and fifty or so, but remains fun and inventive in a speculative, hard-sci-fi kind of way. Then it becomes a joy again all the way to the end. So many ne ...more |

quote
“The sun burns, clawing its way higher and higher in the sky, scorching Lylitte's neck and shoulders. It's more than just the heat that overwhelms. Her belly feels as if it has doubled in size, and all her parts are swollen; her back is exhausted, and her joints ache. She watches from under heavy lids as an indifferent land of sparse grass, dirt, and sand give off waves of heat that look as though it will cook her and her children alive. Earth is horrendous and uncomfortable and ugly, she reflects. How will we possibly survive?”

| It’s incredible how much we take radio for granted. Before we could pass information through frequency waves, the world was not only completely unrecognizable compared to today, but there was no way anyone could fathom what the future would look like ...more | |

| Five stars for the premise—actually, how about six? This concept of radio and frequency manipulation, as a rule, is something everyone feels in this era. It’s not a conspiracy either; receipts are everywhere. The FCC in the US has been massively dere ...more | |
“He falls further into darkness. The stinging pain of daily torture and the numbing cold hardly bother him now, and he relishes the thought that soon he might disappear entirely. Then Lylitte is there in his thoughts again, and the splitting pain brings him back into this life, and again, only one thing eases the torment: winding further out of existence.”

“So, let me get this right. You invented this groundbreaking medical technology that changes the way we literally do everything in trauma and blood, and you are out here, 30.3 light-years away from Earth, on a planet where everyone involved in the Eden project was a hundred percent sure there’d be no DNA, blood, or anything? And now here we are playing with the DNA of an alien race? What is this? What is actually going on here?”

“There were times, while Atom slept and she was awake soothing her crying daughter, that a question itched from somewhere deep within. This "unsolved mystery" that Atom spoke of: It was all in the past, her mind insisted, as that's what her husband had promised. But she couldn't let it go, so eventually she had to ask. "Why did these ghost people emerge and then just vanish in your world?”
