THROUGH A FOREST OF STARS IBD

Sinopse

Year 2217. Earth&rsquo,s biosphere is dying, Mars&rsquo,s terraforming projects are in ruin, resource wars are brewing, and even the discovery of voidoids&mdash,eerie neo-quantum portals into nearby star systems&mdash,has failed to yield other habitable worlds in Bound Space. But that&rsquo,s about to change. Aiden Macallan, Terra Corp&rsquo,s maverick planetologist aboard the survey ship Argo, is plunged to the center of a deadly conflict over a miraculous discovery in the Chara system, 27 light years from Earth. For a dying human race, Sylvanus&mdash,a singular incarnation of the Gaia Hypothesis fully realized&mdash,should be a cause for rejoicing. Instead, Unified Earth Domain and the Allied Republics of Mars are on the brink of a catastrophic war over its possession.But Aiden has even deeper concerns. Long before his arrival in the Chara system, he&rsquo,s been haunted by a recurring dream that transports him to a lush alien forest where pagan archetypes grow frighteningly real, and more personal, with each step. It&rsquo,s one part of the intricate puzzle he&rsquo,ll need to solve as he treks across a very real, but profoundly mysterious, landscape in a race against time to save an extraordinary world from destruction&mdash,a world that holds humanity&rsquo,s last hope for survival.
