Two planets circled Brinsen’s Star: Mundis and Secundis. On one, a tiny colony of refugees from Earth struggles and begins to thrive.

Then, from the void between the two planets, a strange space ship brings a challenge more deadly than any the inhabitants of Mundis have ever known. Now, in the face of this deadly threat they must do the impossible: Join together.
