Genre: Science Fiction | Drama | Mystery
Description:
Caleb Thorne once made the call that saved 312,000 lives. Now, he is the one who needs saving.
In 2075, as the Emergency Director of San Francisco, Caleb made a lone, gut-wrenching decision to evacuate the coast hours before a massive tsunami struck. He was hailed as a hero. Years later, he is dying of an incurable disease, surrounded by loved ones saying goodbye. His last memory is his wife Sarah whispering, "Trust us."
He awakens.
Not in a hospital. Not in any recognizable place. He is in a pristine, empty room, his body healed and strong. A hologram of Sarah delivers a recorded message from the past: "We put you in stasis. We couldn't let you go."
But that was 880 years ago.
Guided by an enigmatic AI, Caleb learns the staggering truth: he is a statistical miracle, one of only 17 survivors from his era. He has been recovered by the Stellar Legacy Organization and is now aboard a starship, in orbit around a new world in the TRAPPIST-1 system.
And he is not alone.
Before him lie 4,999 other souls in stasis. They are refugees from time, healthy, sleeping, and utterly lost. They have been waiting for a leader.
Caleb was the first to be awakened. Not to be saved, but to do the saving.
Greetings to the Past is a gripping sci-fi odyssey that asks: How do you build a future when your past is ancient history? How do you say "welcome" to someone who has lost everything, yet has everything left to lose?
For fans of the profound humanity in Arthur C. Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama, the emotional survivalism of Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary, and the intricate world-building of Kim Stanley Robinson's Aurora.
