About this ebook
Sentient beings venture out to explore one of the many moons orbiting their home planet, searching for knowledge and life beyond their world,
only to discover that life is more strange and terrifying than any of their race could imagine, and it's more advanced. Will initial fears and lack of understanding prevent contact, or will it ensure it?
