About this audiobook
Humanity has conquered the Solar System, mastered genetic engineering, extended life, and created artificial intelligences of extraordinary sophistication. Yet one mystery remains unsolved: no human expedition has ever successfully escaped the invisible boundaries of the planetary system.
When the deep space vessel Earth Universalis IV abruptly aborts its mission and begins returning home, the event sends shockwaves through civilization. Its crew is silent, its systems provide no explanation. Three previous missions vanished without a trace. Now a fourth ship is coming back, carrying only questions.
Squadron Leader Takata Vagia, a brilliant geneticist, astrophysicist, and expert in artificial intelligence, is summoned to investigate. During her journey, she encounters something that should not exist: Kaiadas, a legendary superintelligence believed to be nothing more than a myth.
