Imminence: Highlands World in Crisis
They are in serious trouble!
An ATV – a small asteroid turned into an interstellar terra-forming ship. Almost 700 light-years from home. Almost a million years in their own past. But the system they were investigating was not suitable. They would move on. Then catastrophe struck. They were marooned in an inhospitable system. No planet to build into a human world. So they made their own. A collection of asteroids became a unique cluster world. They made it green and the original crew would, in time, awake from their long sleep and become colonists. Theirs would become the most unique of human worlds: Highlands World.
Now, almost back in their own time, soon they would be able to reconnect with human civilization. But a thoughtless act of sabotage has had far-reaching and unintended consequences. Their world is doomed. The end of their world is imminent. It will destroy itself and with it almost five million descendants of the colonists.
Blocked by an ignorant and repressive theocracy, they can't make the repairs needed to prevent a collapse. Their fate is in the hands of a shipwrecked fisherman. He must save his world – but he doesn’t know that. He’s just a fisherman.
