Cyan

---

"This storyline contains an interesting and likable main character. The new world is also interesting with a semi-intelligent alien species. The fate of earth is plausible. The main protagonist is believable and gets his due." - KSRTEXAS, amazon

Colonizing Cyan may be Earth's last hope for survival.

It took Earth's last, dying effort, led by Keir Delacroix of the original explorers, to plant a colony on Cyan. Now the new colonists are uneasy in their seasonless paradise. Will destruction come upon them from a renegade explorer and her DNA modified creatures of the torrid zone, or from Saloman Curran, the man whose heartless manipulations brought them here? Or will it come from their own inability to adapt to their new home?
