Tomorrow's Kin: The aliens have arrived... they've landed their Embassy ship on a platform in New York Harbor, and will only speak with the United Nations. They say that their world is so different from Earth, in terms of gravity and atmosphere, that they cannot leave their ship. The population of Earth has erupted in fear and speculation.
If Tomorrow Comes: Ten years after the Aliens left Earth, humanity succeeds in building a ship, Friendship, to follow them home to Kindred.

No interplanetary culture, no industrial base—and no cure for the spore disease.

Once home, after the twenty-eight-year gap caused by their transit through space, they find an Earth changed almost beyond recognition…
