Welcome to Viridia. It's the 26th Century, and humanity has advanced into space. Alandra, a clone educated in a mimicry of 21st century culture, awakens from her cloning pod. She is part of the Viridian colony created with a mission: to build a Warp Gate and connect back to the human network hub in the Sol System and thus turn Viridia into humanity's farthest-from-the-cradle colony. Struggling with her own cultural latency, she is caught unprepared when a disastrous bioclasm strikes, infecting her - and a minority of the colony's inhabitants - with alien genetic symbiotes, metamorphosing them into something inhuman. Clinging to her understanding of humanity, she must now struggle against the preconceived notions of who - or what - she is, all the while navigating an unfamiliar world. A world that is under no obligation to make sense to the aliens from beyond the stars.

So, keep an open mind and join him on this exploration and adventure into the future, because, as Harbo says, "The world will not grow less complex."
