Out From Edom: Book I of the Irredente Chronicles

De: J. Patrick Sutton

Revised October 2011 Edition. In a far-future galaxy ruled by an anti-technology, theocratic regime, a young boy rescued from a backwater, working-class "outlier" world embodies a genetic errancy that might save mankind from its luddism and hypocrisy -- if the regime doesn't first seize him and consign him to the dreaded planet Lindenau, the repository of genetic misfits known as "nonconforms." The Irredente regime has for too long dithered in the face of alien incursions into its hegemony space. Strange infestations of bug-like creatures known as "armadillia" presage massive alien attacks upon planets and ships, obliterating the technology-hobbled Irredente forces who would defend them. Unknown to the Irredente, Henryk, a genetically-errant orphan, has the ability to communicate with the armadillia, the last vestige of an alien race from far beyond Irredente space. If he can escape the governing-class "conforming" humans who would consign him to oblivion, Henryk holds the key to transforming and saving humanity by discovering the nature and identity of the aliens stalking it. With an array of compelling characters and elaborate, clock-works plotting, Book I in the Irredente Chronicles transports the reader on a voyage of discovery into far-future worlds -- and into the heart of science and consciousness.
