The Colony Ship Vanguard was one of seven colony ships launched from a damaged Earth in a desperate plan to carry human settlers to Earth equivalent worlds. The voyages would take generations, and the people on board, as well as the flora and fauna in huge biological habitats had to be stable. But something happened on the way. Now, over one hundred years later, Earth is all but dead. People survive only in Dome 17.

It all comes together,
Defending the Vanguard: Colony Ship Vanguard, Book 7.. Masterful - Lots of questions answered. This is an awesome sci fi series. Sometimes the"Heroes" aren't heroic and are really annoying and sometimes a "Bad" guy turns out to be a hero. Great series, great book . I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my own request, and voluntarily leave this review.
