Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. To win an interstellar war against a forgotten enemy, the former League of Human Worlds purged all high technology along with the digitized history and knowledge of hundreds of worlds. This victory came at a heavy cost, bringing an end to interstellar travel and disaster to those worlds dependent on interplanetary trade. This catastrophic event came to be known as the Collapse. Rebuilding from a horrifying Dark Age lasting nearly two millennia, humankind has once again begun to reach out to the stars with the aid of the enigmatic Pincherians. An alien species from another part of the galaxy, they made interstellar travel possible once again and have helped to build a strong trade network with their human partners as one by one, the lost worlds of the League were rediscovered. Few worlds are ideally suited for human life. Only the Elite of humanity are permitted to live upon them. The rest of mankind lives under far harsher conditions. Other colonies exist on barely-habitable planets and moons where everyday life is a constant struggle. There is an escape from these less-than-friendly places: The Pincherian Academy. Acceptance into the Academy comes with an obligatory twenty-year term of service. That service is rewarded with the finest education available and a place alongside the Pincherians as they search for other lost worlds through their Probe program. Work long enough, survive long enough, and elevation to the Elite is a practical certainty.Raymond Desmond and his friend, William Shamadorio, have made the cut, surpassing millions of other applicants to join the hundreds deemed eligible to attend the prestigious Pincherian Academy. While William's eyes are filled with visions of a future among the Elite, Raymond ponders other aspects of their future. Is the Academy truly all it claims to be? Are Humanity's Pincherian partners, aliens rarely seen by human eyes, all they present themselves as being? His answers can only be found by putting his life in their hands. He must board the ship waiting for them all at Freedom Station. This item is printed on demand.

Humans: The most endangered species on Earth.Hunted relentlessly for their flesh, their blood, perhaps even their very souls.The first victim was a priest, too stricken with fear for his legs to carry him away. In less than a minute, other victims followed. Almost simultaneously, attacks began across the spinning world. Cities fell within days. With each succeeding day, witnesses to the growing horror became fewer.One by one, humans have been set upon and brought down to face a slow and painful end.Here and there, a rare few have survived, kept alive by will and wits. Some stay hidden as best they can. Others wander across the land as vagabonds, one step ahead of their unrelenting pursuers.On rare occasion these survivors meet, usually to the detriment of one or the other. Sometimes desperation is set aside in favor of cooperation. Groups form and seek out others to gain strength and find solace, their never-ending fear diluted by cautious hope.This is the story of one such group, struggling to survive in the Land of the Ravenous.
