A classic science fiction adventure from the backlist of Megan
Lindholm, who also writes as Robin Hobb. Generations ago humanity
abandoned Earth. Now they have returned. Far from home, the Human
race tries to atone for killing Terra thousands of years ago.
Rescued by the enigmatic Arthroplana in their mysterious
Beastships, they have been inserted into the fragile ecologies of
the alien twin worlds of Castor and Pollux, where they must make no
impact, where every drop of water must be returned. Humanity has
adjusted -- or tried to. Despite the constant watch of the
Arthroplana and the HUman Conservancy, John Gen-93-Beta has agreed
to captain the Beastship Evangeline on an unthinkable journey to a
dead planet...Earth. And so begins an engrossing voyage of
discovery for five travellers: John, his First Mate Connie,
stowaaway Raef, Tug the Arthroplana and the Beastship Evangeline
herself. On a planet none quite expected, each learns the power of
being human.
