Emmett, the other Genesis members, and the Imago are in a desperate march to get themselves to the launching stations spread throughout the planet before the moons collide and make Eden uninhabitable. Longwei has offered himself as a double agent to infiltrate one of the ships and help them survive the desperate chance to overtake Babel’s ships. But Erone may have been compromised and there is an unexpected, highly trained, and highly loyal Genesis 14 group to thwart their moves. Who will actually survive Babel’s machinations? 

Now that we have reached the third, high octane end to the trilogy, I have to say it – with all of the billions of dollars sunk into this venture, how could Babel NOT NOTICE that the moons of Eden were about to collide???? There, I said it. Despite that, I loved this trilogy very much. A great combination of science, aliens, actions, and romantic side stories!
