Book Synopsis

''This series continues to impress.'' - Kirkus Reviews

''As always, Mr. Card writes with energy and conviction.'' - The New York Times Book Review

''The man''s versatility of style, subject and approach makes him unique in the SF field.'' - Anne McCaffrey

Above the planet Harmony, the computer Oversoul watches. But its systems are failing and the only hope of repair lies a thousand light-years away on the planet Earth, which was left forty million years ago ...

Nafai and his family have been chosen to make the great journey home, but most of them do so grudgingly. Their anger and hatred will make the trek across the desert wastes to the long-abandoned spaceport both harder and more deadly.

The third book in the acclaimed Homecoming series by Orson Scott Card, now reissued with stunning new artwork.
