Description
Sister Alice, a novel by Robert Reed, is set 10 million years in the future. In this future, humans and their cloned offspring have been granted the power to build worlds and terraform wastelands, preserving a lasting peace that has endured for eons.
However, an ancient crime from the past threatens to disrupt this fragile balance. A woman as old as the peace itself brings warning of the impending danger, drawing attention to a long-forgotten event with far-reaching consequences.
This thought-provoking science fiction novel explores the complexities of power, legacy, and the weight of history, inviting readers to consider the implications of human ingenuity and the enduring nature of conflict.
