Abilyn has lived all her life in a culture that creates closeness without intimacy and community without love. Abilyn wants something different. She wants to create life where it has never been.
Abilyn is one of the passengers aboard Thepolis, a starship on an interstellar voyage. In the fifty thousand years of Thepolis's travels, men have been bred out of existence. The women are in charge and create the next generation using a sperm bank. Then someone steals the remaining genetic material, and Thepolis faces its greatest challenge yet.
While she continues her personal quest, Abilyn joins the hunt for the thief. Her mysterious psychic abilities allow her to communicate with other humans, plants, and even alien species. Assisting Abilyn is Roerhe, a strange spirit existing only in her mind, and Grx, a robot longing to be human. During her journey, Abilyn learns disturbing truths about the complex politics aboard Thepolis and makes important decisions about her own fate. Gradually, she comes to understand the true future of Thepolis and its inhabitants.
Explore what it means to be human when humanity may be doomed to extinction in this gripping novel by James Navarra.
