Time is running out for the inhabitants of Proxima Centauri. Unsettling discoveries there and at Luyten's star now threaten both Proxima and Earth, in a new hard science fiction thriller from Travis S. Taylor and Les Johnson.
First contact with the seemingly impossible human civilization at Proxima Centauri is not going well. The Earth ships sent to render aid have not been able to reverse the contagion ravaging their population and, worse, many Proximans are now wondering if the humans from Earth are there for other, not so charitable, reasons. Can the extinction-level disaster faced at Proxima be reversed by the combined ingenuity of scientists from both worlds working together?
Unsettling discoveries in the Proxima Centauri planetary system beg the questions: What if the evil gods depicted in Proxima's ancient mythologies were real and far more powerful than even the humans from Earth with their late twenty-first-century technologies? Worse, what if their ancient oppressors never truly left?
