Description

Theres no more time
Theres always more time
Trevor Gray has been stripped of his command of the starship America, and is unsure what to do with his life. Having dedicated so much of himself to the service, he knew following the super-AI Konstantins advice could have severe consequences. He just never thought he would be out of the fight.

Because thats what Earth is in: a fight against a sinister alien force so technologically advanced that there seems little hope. Thats why he disobeyed his orders in the first place to figure out a way to stop them. But now hes 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 if they can make it in time prevent humanity from being wiped from the universe.

Reviews

Douglas knows his SF
Publishers Weekly

The action is full-blooded and almost non stop, yet the well-developed background is surprisingly rich and logical As immersive as it is impressive
Kirkus (Starred Review)
