Opis

Green World's second invasion has arrived . . . It is not the easy conquest that the spoiled Echelon had expected. In fact, they are quickly discussing their terms of surrender. The invitation to join the new world is taken up by many that would flee Supreme Commander Kalian Denton's rule. He was "elected" by giving the Echelon Council no choice. Those that refuse to be ruled by "slaves" and wishing to cling to the old ways stay in Denton Territory. However, the choice itself makes it possible to alter futures for young lovers and old men alike. Life is not easy for those who integrate. They must fight the hate that still burns in the hearts of the survivors of the "seeded" planets and learn to do their own labor. Change is part of the fabric of a growing government, cross-cultural love, Field Marriages, where strangers who wish land and a family are bonded, and new possibilities. When Denton gains a powerful ally, he plots to rule the planet. He will destroy the colonists and make them Labor once again to gain revenge for the humiliation of being put under siege . . . .
