Orfin and Borthid have just completed their long journey from earth
to Galcon, a planet balanced between two suns. They are met by the
ambassador who has been assigned to the planetary outpost. The two
are "Discontinueds" which means that they belong to a class of
people rendered sterile by a virus which has ravaged earth. Through
a lottery set up by the Planetary Council, they have been chosen
"Citizen Explorers," and begin a new life on Galcon. As the story
progresses, it becomes clear that things are not as they seem.
Behind the personal stories of Orfin and Borthid lies a struggle
for control of earth's technologies. The unknown factor is the
photosynthoid creatures of Galcon. Dismissed as "Froggies" by the
ambassador, Orfin and Borthid see them as the Children of Light. As
the two protagonists navigate the terrain of the planet, they
discover their identities as Miriam and Paul. They confront their
personal demons and emerge whole through the efforts of the shared
consciousness of the Children.
