Publisher's Summary

For the first stage of terraforming Venus, it took a century to move the planet further from the sun and establish a stable orbit where heat would be dissipated. Now, 85 years later, the other terraforming stages continue using various methods.

Buddy Barron lives in one of the enclosed dome cities on Venus. His life is about to change catastrophically. How will he cope? What will he do? Will his family ever be the same? Is Venus the planet of love, or a hellish nightmare?

This is a standalone science-fiction drama set in an altered timeline from John Thornton's Colony Ship Universe. Download this book and find out what moment changed everything....
