Produktbeschreibung
To overcome intolerance, she'll have to stay true to her history--and her heart. Brittany spends her days fearing arrest from the humanz and the IMPACT police force for something that seems like it shouldn't matter: she's too tall. On Sympia, something like that is enough to get a person in deep trouble. When one day the IMPACT surrounds her building, Brittany's only hope is to escape with another Sympian species, the spherical little silfs. But there is another reason the IMPACT wants to capture Brittany: She is the carrier of a transmitting device that emits a signal to her human ancestor Alessandra McLean, captain of the galactic cruiser Strabo. As Brittany and her small crew of outcasts escape to space aboard the Strabo, guided by the holographic memory of Alessandra, they discover that beyond the stars, an even greater enemy lurks.
Autorenporträt
After a career as a teacher and principal of mainly small rural schools, Ross Richdale lives in the university town of Palmerston North in the North Island of New Zealand. There he writes contemporary novels and science fiction. He is married with three adult children and six grandchildren. His interest in current events and international incidents serve as a backdrop for many of his novels. Ordinary people, rather than the super rich or super powerful, are the main characters in his stories. His plots reflect his interest in the rural lifestyle as well as the cross section of personalities he's met as a teacher.
