What would it take for you to give up everything you know and cross 500 years worth of the blackness of space to settle on a new, uninhabited planet? The search of adventure? The promise of a better life? The promise of a hefty salary right now? Or the chance to reinvent yourself completely?

Earth's first colony ship, the Neo Kosmo, is set to depart with 10,000 passengers and crew: ordinary people on an extraordinary journey. Along with facing the unique challenges of settling a new planet, everyone on board must fight against their own fears in order to make sense of their new lives. This anthology explores their stories: the challenges, decisions, victories, and failures that mark the beginning of their new lives.

Star Kissed od LizzyFord
Části: 21 Dokončeno Pro dospělé
When Mandy loses her job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease. Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her home. As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position. He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.

Části: 9 Průběžné Pro dospělé
In a future where humanity has spread across the stars, the galaxy is fractured by the effects of time dilation and the isolation of far-flung worlds. Two individuals, Rosco Vern and Alexandra Durham, embark on separate journeys to find meaning in the chaos. Rosco Vern once dreamed of advancing humanity's reach through the Front Runner Initiative, a daring project to colonize the inner galaxy using relativistic space vessels. The initiative was meant to push the boundaries of exploration and establish new civilizations, but after dilating tens of thousands of years of time, Rosco is confronted with an unfamiliar and sinister state of affairs in the galaxy. As Rosco ventures into the unknown, he is pulled into a web of events far beyond his control. Forced to confront the consequences of humanity's technological ambition, Rosco's path becomes one of survival, adaptation, and the search for meaning in a universe that seems indifferent to individual lives. Alexandra Durham, an anthropologist who has dilated tens of thousands of years of time over the course of her career, has spent her life traveling to the furthest reaches of human settlement. Her mission: to catalog the varied fates of humanity's diaspora. Alexandra's journey takes her to forgotten worlds and dying civilizations, where she documents the aftermath of humanity's relentless pursuit of progress. As she faces the stark realities of a universe governed by cold logic and power, Alexandra begins to question whether the endless search for knowledge and perfection can truly save humanity-or if it is merely another form of self-destruction.
