Overview

Earth's Dead The remnants of human civilizations are madly scrambling to throw spacecraft out into the galaxy in attempts to save humanity. The ring of a generation ship has been crammed with scientists, astral navigators, engineers and geneticists. The ship's domes are sparsely populated by nomadic hunter gathers and farmers who have survived the world's broiling. Their mission, whether they know it or not, is to preserve a genetically viable population with the skills to settle a world, feed themselves and flourish. Students of military history might call this a ""forlorn hope.""

Author Information

Peter Brickwood is a curmudgeonly old introvert who started writing novels for the fun of it. Two cats, which he had somehow acquired, graciously permitted him to live in a hundred-year-old house that has no lack of things to fix. Otherwise, he is a voracious consumer of books, movies, and arcane bits of information mined out of the internet. OR If Peter had been born in the United States he would be a child of the greatest generation. Born in England makes him an old fellow raised by a mother who survived the London blitz then built the mulberries for D-Day and a merchant seaman father. His short, part-time service in the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment was overseen by men who fought their way up Italy and through the Scheldt Estuary. Not a veteran himself, he nonetheless reads and watches a wide range of military material. He hopes his stories pay no disrespect to real soldiers.
