Earth is dying. Its human population has declined catastrophically; people have become so isolated that few children are being born. The usual cause of death is self-termination. The Futurists, aided by the worldwide computer network known as Central, take a desperate gamble. They reach into the past to extract candidates who might possess the qualities that the people of 25th Century Earth have lost: courage, determination, curiosity, and stubbornness. Faced by winter that seems unending and looming starvation, a small tribe of transplants head west. But no place on Darwin's World is really safe; they find that their chosen location is only a short distance from a much larger, much older society. One that depends on slavery. This time, fleeing isn't an option. So be it; Matt and the others will do whatever it takes. Incite rebellion? No problem. Even if it means introducing psywar and terrorism to Darwin's World....three days of little sleep and lots of reading...enjoyed the series--Sue V. Whitely...read all 3 books and didn't want it to end! Very good story and author!--David A. Rieger...a complete surprise... Definitely wouldn't have guessed that ending--BridsworldI almost fell out of my chair. This series so far has been excellent. I couldn't resist after that ending. I started the next book immediately even though it was 2 a.m.--Cecile Croghan
