Gwidion’s unusual mental powers bring him to the attention of the world’s remaining politicians, desperate for a way to escape the failing Earth. But in a world which has lost track of its true history, Gwidion is determined to find out the truth about his past.

His efforts to answer his own questions propel him from his sheltered rural community, via the mysterious Soma Academy in Madrid, to a new life in the outer reaches of the galaxy.

 

This myth for modern times re-affirms that we are all linked, involved in the future and the past of our world in ways of which we are barely aware.

  

‘Eifion Jenkins has constructed an imaginative and ambitious futuristic fiction, Asimovian in its scope. This is a big, multiviewpoint fantasy, which builds with smooth assurance from a gentle start in a peaceful, post-apocalyptic community to a wider, far more sinister perspective, shot through with tension and conflict. In the struggle to create a new future for mankind, the story cleverly mirrors our own contemporary world and illustrates with an original eye the possible consequences of our current lifestyles and political choices.  This is a captivating read.’ – Liz Whittaker.
