Ansible Stories

Marooned in an alien body on an alien world. It is the 25th century. The planet's most ambitious project is Starmind, an Islamic research institute that transfers the minds of volunteers, called Ansibles, across gulfs of space and time to make first contact with other sentient beings in the universe. Each of the Ansible stories follows one team of brave minds across the void. These are their reports, their transcripts, the only accounts of what they have found.

The previous Ansibles found themselves marooned, but Zahid, last survivor of Ansible 15718, commands an interstellar fleet, and Sahira, the psionic savant we meet in Ansible: Night Land and Ansible: Strike Force, will take the battle to the pneumavores, humanity's fiercest predators.

The pneumavores ("soul eaters") have taken the Earth and have spread to every planet humanity has ever touched. Now, a Syrian refugee, a 13th-century librarian, and a hijabi shapeshifter from the far future must travel across space and time to defend humanity from this intergalactic and devouring evil.
