In Earth's distant future, Tyndel is both teacher and mentor, a staunch devotee to his conservative and rigidly structured religious culture. Then a rogue infection of nanotechnology transforms him into a "demon", something more than human, and he is forced into exile, fleeing to the more technologically advanced space-faring civilization that lies to the north, one that his own righteous people consider evil. Although shaken by his transformation, he has the rare talent required to become a space pilot.

Alvin woke in a room that was not his, to discover that he had died and his brain had been bargained off cheaply to pay off someone else’s debt. It did not sit well with him. It didn’t surprise him that even in death, people were still using him for their own purposes. He had never exactly been a good guy, but everyone had their breaking point, and he had found his. The bastards in charge had uploaded his mind into a virtual death game. The whole world could now pay to see him play it and probably die. Regardless, he was not about to wait for death to come for him.

You can't militarize space. This one rule has led to decades of peaceful development of space programs worldwide. However, increasing resource scarcity and a changing climate on Earth's surface is causing some interested parties - namely India, the North American Union, and the Sinese Federation - to militarize. The discovery of a strange artifact by Dr. Alayna Wong precipitates a crisis. What appears to be a hitherto undiscovered comet is soon revealed to be an alien structure on a cometary trajectory toward the sun.

Cannot gush enough!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes! As you can tell, I really, really like this series. Surprisingly, I was originally irritated by the ending, but as I have gotten older I have grown to appreciate the incite shown by Modesitt.
What did you like best about this story?
It is hard to capture a maudlin theme in a generally optimistic genre like science fiction, however when it is done well, it can be the best of the genre.
Have you listened to any of Kyle McCarley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I want more!

Better late than never
An older trilogy a friend put me onto. I'm going to miss it. Ecologically speaking, fits our generations concerns and hopes.
The author draws you in, makes you care, and then you sit in your car unable to turn it off!
Only complaint - and it's a mild one as I adjusted - the narrator does an excellent job but the "mechanical" noises I could have done without.
