This is the thrilling sequel to 'Echoes of Earth' and tells the tale of the surviving Engrams and the sole surviving human. A sobering look at what could happen if Earth's first contact is with a technologically superior race bent on destruction.

After being given gifts by the mysterious 'spinners', the colonies are being attacked and destroyed by the sinister 'starfish'. Technologically superior to humanity, it seems there is no escape from the destruction these beings reap. This is a chilling read as we ponder the probability of the extinction of humanity. ( )

Fairly average, I don't enjoy this nearly as much as the Evergence trilogy. I wonder if there is any chance these guys ever do a stand-alone book?

More of your people separated from bodies type fare.

The middle volume of a trilogy, as events shape up and the alien forces come into play.
