Ten millennia from now, Earth is ravaged by an alien species called the “scourge”. Meolchwik, a sixteen-year-old girl, lives hidden with her community in future Europe deep in mountain caves, longing to see the world outside even if it is overrun with deadly invaders. Soon she has to confront what she’s dreamed of when the scourge threatens her hidden civilization. On a parallel dimension of Earth as yet unsullied by these aliens, Tagla, a seventeen-year-old sculptor’s apprentice, resides unsuspecting that his fate will collide with that of Meolchwik’s during an invasion into his world. A third perspective of an alien hive mother who fosters a psychic connection with young Meolchwik offers insight into the motivations of the scourge. This thrilling story is one of cross-cultural clashes and adaptation, of people searching for a way to create community as civilization falls and of finding love and family in worlds on the brink of destruction. This 79,000-word novel acts as a sequel to Returning or as a stand-alone novel.
