Review Summaries
"In the year 2236 a brilliant new supernova lights the night sky.
Forty-eight years later a meteor strikes an orbiting CosTek space station ... a secret team develops a new hybrid android ... and the company's astronomical observers sight a baffling tetrahedron-shaped object approaching Uranus.
Astonishingly, CosTek astronomers trace the origin of the mysterious object Tetra to Situla, the source of the supernova -- and infer that the entity is occupied. But by what -- or whom? An android crew is dispatched to investigate, led by Dr. Benjamin Akers, a top android designer and, by a radical twist of fate, now the world's first hybrid biological android himself. "
