2070-71. Nearly six decades after Step Day and in the Long Earth,
the new Next post-human society continues to evolve. For Joshua
Valiente, now in his late sixties, it is time to take one last solo
journey into the High Meggers: an adventure that turns into a
disaster. Alone and facing death, his only hope of salvation lies
with a group of trolls. But as Joshua confronts his mortality, the
Long Earth receives a signal from the stars. A signal that is
picked up by radio astronomers but also in more abstract ways - by
the trolls and by the Great Traversers. Its message is simple but
its implications are enormous: JOIN US. The super-smart Next
realise that the Message contains instructions on how to develop an
immense artificial intelligence but to build it they have to seek
help from throughout the industrious worlds of mankind. Bit by bit,
byte by byte, they assemble a computer the size of a continent - a
device that will alter the Long Earth's place within the cosmos and
reveal the ultimate, life-affirming goal of those who sent the
Message. Its impact will be felt by and resonate with all - mankind
and other species, young and old, communities and individuals - who
inhabit the Long Earths...
