How do children deal with the breakdown of the world they live in?
And will Nestor Tark's compassion for them destroy his own family's
happiness? In the Sevolite Empire, your quality of life is
determined by your genetic make-up, so it's tempting to twist the
rules forbidding genetic engineering in your favor - even if the
punishment for getting caught is death for all your descendants. On
the planet Monitum, the Ald'erda children are left orphaned and
forced to flee their homes when their father's ambition throws the
entire planet into chaos - right after Nestor decides to move in.
Blessed with special genetic gifts, the children are branded as
criminals. Olivia, the oldest, struggles to keep her family
together as she leads the hunted refugees like herself. Voltan, the
youngest, teeters on the brink of insanity as his modified mind
can't stop looking for answers. Their brother, Pleo, gives into
rage and seeks revenge for his family, but his plans might not be
all his own. These young sparrows need Nestor's help to survive,
but at what cost to his own wife and child? And beyond mere
survival, can any of them find a place for themselves in a society
that despises them as catalysts of chaos?
