Description

n a lab at the edge of the galaxy, in search of an ancient archive, scientists unwittingly unleash the Blight: this vast, destructive entity rampages through the Zones of Thought, subverting digital intelligence and devastating countless worlds and races throughout the Beyond. One ship, carrying the children of the scientists, seeks haven on an obscure world in the Slow Zone, only to find medieval kingdoms of group-animals -the Tines – at war with one another. Another ship, itself fleeing the Blight, follows their ship’s distress signal to Tines World and helps end the war, saving most of the Children.
Ten years later…
