As life on Earth crumbles and the rich seek sanctuary in rotating space habitats, desire and ambition collide as a greedy billionaire mining boss and his scheming doctor seek to exploit the mineral-rich asteroids.The seven children become enmeshed in the battle for interstellar resources, including an ancient crystal that holds the key to unlocking the universe's mysteries and buying the release of their fugitive mother.

But his mission to birth genetically engineered humans capable of surviving in the harsh conditions of space will change the universe in ways that no one could foresee.And there's things in the universe far older and more powerful than humankind ...
