Description

The Archipelago has been silent for half a century, its eccentric cluster of planets forging a new society in isolation from the great interplanetary leagues. Then, out of the blue, they send a message: the leagues are invited to visit. Ren Markov, a veteran diplomat, is dispatched on a mission into the Arc, where he discovers stunning worlds and a radical, ecologically obsessed society that is both compelling and disturbing. As Ren navigates this strange new world, he faces a terrible decision: protect this society or fear it and allow it to be crushed. Machiavellian plots swirl as the leagues struggle for influence and control. Ren's own identity hangs in the balance as he chooses between salvation and annihilation. This novel takes readers on a journey through interstellar politics, revolution, and the diverging ethics of a vast diaspora.
