The Measure of Life: A First Contact Science Fiction Adventure of Alien Intelligence, Synthetic Humanity, and the Price of Survival (The Far Horizons Series) - Softcover
Book 2 of 3: The Far Horizons Series
Synopsis
Humanity came looking for a new world. What they found may redefine what it means to be alive.
Scottie Sanders has already died twice.
Now living in a synthetic body forty light-years from Earth, he has survived humanity’s first interstellar voyage and helped make contact with an intelligence unlike anything humans imagined.
But the discovery of the silent world is only the beginning.
On Quiet Reach, Scottie, Naomi, and the crew of Pioneer Dawn encounter a planetary intelligence capable of preserving minds, reconstructing memories, and offering something dangerously close to immortality. Its technology could change humanity forever—but its definition of preservation comes at a terrible price: individuality itself.
As Scottie struggles with memories of the life and family he left behind, his growing relationship with Naomi forces him to confront another question: if his first life is truly over, is he finally willing to build a new one?
Then the mission leads them beneath the ice of another world.
There they discover Haven, an ancient repository of stored minds, an alien civilization beneath a vast ocean, and evidence that someone long ago tried to spread their civilization to the stars without waiting for permission. A transmission has already been sent. It cannot be recalled.
And humanity is coming too.
The faster colony ship Starlight is approaching with hundreds of people, advanced technology, and laws written on an Earth forty light-years away—laws that may determine who is a person, who is property, and who has the right to claim these worlds.
