THE ULTIMATE VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY ENDS WHEN YOU LEARN
THE TRUTH ABOUT YOURSELF.
Michael Anderson never thought he would set foot on
a world like Earth. Born and raised in a colony of scientists on
the farthest edge of the solar system, he only studied planets from
afar. But when his parents build mankind's first wormhole and
discover a world emitting a mysterious artificial signal, Michael
is the only qualified planetologist young enough to travel to the
alien star.
He is not alone on this voyage of discovery. Terra,
his sole mission partner, is no more an adult than he is. Soon
after their arrival, however, she begins acting strangely—as if
she's keeping secrets from him. And her darkest secret is one that
Michael already knows.
Twenty light-years from the nearest human being,
they must learn to work together if they're ever going to survive.
And what they discover on the alien planet forces them to
re-examine their deepest, most unquestioned beliefs about the
universe—and about what it means to be human.
