Against all odds, she survived in cryo stasis, and thanks to the pirate captain who rescued her, she built a new family and a new life as Queen of Ajen.

Sono trascorsi mille anni dal viaggio dell'astronave Discovery verso Saturno e dalla drammatica conclusione della sua missione. Marte, la Luna e il satellite Ganimede sono ormai da tempo luoghi colonizzati e completamente abitati. Il progresso scientifico e tecnologico ha raggiunto un tale livello di sviluppo da rendere obsoleti persino alcuni tipi di lanci spaziali. Da un gigantesco anello attorno all'equatore terrestre partono quattro torri, lunghe diecimila piani e che funzionano come ascensori spaziali, rendendo di fatto inutili i lanci di razzi dalla superficie terrestre.

Mars. The red planet. A new frontier for humanity: a civilisation where humans can live in peace, lord and master of all they survey. But this isn't Space City from those old science-fiction books. It's more like Hell City, built into and from a huge crater. There's a big silk canopy over it, feeding out atmosphere as we generate it, little by little, because we can't breathe the air here. I guess it's a perfect place to live, if you want to live on Mars. At some point I must have wanted to live on Mars, because here I am.

Thousands of years ago, Earth’s terraforming program took to the stars.
