Vu-Hak War

A rift in space now connects Earth to another galaxy. A result of the Cold War's secret nuclear arms race, hidden by scientists and US governments for half a century. Forgotten. But behind this portal lies an ancient and malevolent race, the Vu-Hak. Once organic, now entities of pure thought drifting between the stars, they are an alpha species. A species that colonises on a galactic scale. And they are coming here.

Kate Morgan has had her memory wiped and has no idea of her true identity, her encounter with the monstrous Vu-Hak, or her relationship with humanity's presumed savior, Adam Benedict. But despite his apparent sacrifice, the portal has opened and the Vu-Hak are here on Earth in huge numbers. Invisible, wraith-like. And searching for Kate.

The survivors of the Vu-Hak nuclear destruction of Earth have arrived in a distant galaxy, fifteen thousand years in the past. They have settled on a moon orbiting a gas giant in a binary star system: the world from which the Vu-Hak did—will—launch its murderous assault on Earth. While the survivors search for the ancestors of their attackers, adult humans are being grown from embryonic stem cells under Cain's direction. Genetically upgraded and biologically enhanced, these "post-humans" will ensure the future of the race.
