Titles in this Set

Children of Time — Children of Time is the epic story of humanity's battle for survival on a terraformed planet. Who will inherit this new Earth? The last remnants of the human race leave a dying world and discover a planet terraformed and prepared for human life. The novel explores who truly inherits a new world and examines themes of evolution, culture clash, and survival.

Children of Ruin — It has been waiting through the ages. Now it's time... Thousands of years ago Earth’s terraforming program reached the stars. On the world they called Nod, alien life was discovered, but the mission tried to overwrite it with the memory of Earth. After humanity’s empire fell and the program’s intentions were lost, aeons pass. When humans and their spider allies detect ancient radio signals, they send an exploration vessel — and wake forces on Nod better left undisturbed.

Children of Memory — They dreamed of a new home. They woke to a nightmare. On Imir, Captain Holt founded a colony that once represented hope for humanity. Generations later, harvests fail, machines rust, and strangers arrive in a close-knit town. The community senses it’s being watched — and secrets from the past lurk in the forest. This installment deepens the series’ exploration of memory, legacy, and the fragility of civilization.
