Thereâs no more timeâŚThereâs always more timeâŚ
Trevor Gray has been stripped of his command of the starship , and is unsure what to do with his life. Having dedicated so much of himself to the service, he knew following the super-AI Konstantinâs advice could have severe consequences. He just never thought he would be out of the fight.America
Because thatâs what Earth is in: a fight against a sinister alien force so technologically advanced that there seems little hope. Thatâs why he disobeyed his orders in the first place â to figure out a way to stop them. But now heâs beached.
Which is just what Konstantin wanted.
For the super-AI has a plan: connect Gray with the Pan-Europeans, and set him on a course to the remote star Deneb. There, he is to make contact with a mysterious alien civilization using the new artificial intelligence Bright Light, and maybe â if they can make it in time â prevent humanity from being wiped from the universe.
