Home Star is dying, and dying fast. Its inhabitants must flee - but where? After 600 millennia of mostly peaceful existence, the citizens and their symbiotic relations of Home are doomed.
Purely by happenstance, the astrophysicists under the supervision of Pram, Minister of Science, have also detected an alien signal from a star 55 years distant. A planet is found that orbits the star inside its habitable zone. They decide to migrate. The journey will be full of risk, but to stay is certain extinction. This is story of that epic migration - the costs and sacrifices, the planning, the light years long journey and its unexpected conclusion.
It is also a story of immigration and cooperation, of hope and co-existence. Set in the near future, this is a story that will appeal to all ages of science fiction readers.
