To explore, to spread, to report back.Since their germination, Earth has been a powder keg. Human rebellion, robot uprisings, and global pandemics have created chaos, distrust, and deaths.As more and more conflicts break out across Earth, Stevland''s children work in the background, in an attempt to control human behavior and perhaps, bring peace to the planet. Stevland took control of Pax. Earth shouldn’t be too difficult…Other Books by Sue BurkeSemiosis SemiosisInterferenceUsurpationImmunity IndexDual MemoryAt the Publisher''s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
