A great black cube glides just above the tenuous upper atmosphere of a planet blessed with green lands surrounded by blue oceans. This cube is blacker than black. It resembles a moving hole. But it is not empty. Within this wonderful vessel is a visitor from a distant star, Lord Bright-wing, explorer of many worlds and representative of the People, a civilization hundreds of thousands of years old. Bright-wing controls the awesome power of his craft through his servant, an artificial intelligence of vast intellect. But advanced and powerful as creature and machine might be, Bright-wing will shortly face a challenge none of the People had ever faced and indeed had taken every precaution to avoid.But the unintended consequences of Lord Bright-wing’s actions trickle down through millennia to bring into existence an evil organization calling itself Wings between the Worlds. This group of cold-hearted men and women seeks to use the almost unlimited power that has fallen into its hands to dominate the world. But just as the leadership of Wings between the Worlds is on the verge of executing their well-laid plans, one of their own orphan slaves, a young girl, meets Adam Jones, a boy from a well-respected spacefaring family. And together they accept a lonely mission to free the remaining orphans and travel the solar system to destroy the power of Wings. And it must be done in secret; not even Adam’s parents can know. If these two young people fail, they will simply disappear, never to be seen or heard from again, their love and sacrifice wasted and unappreciated.
