Publisher's Synopsis
At last the truth had been revealed to them. The little group of MAC clones had only just discovered that they had somehow survived the horrific end of humankind more than sixteen thousand years before. Now the tall Australian doctor, the stoic engineer, the visual artist, the bumbling surfer, the affable secretary, the gregarious restaurateur, the elderly tinkerer and the reticent school teacher finally knew of the precariousness of their peculiar situation: they were some of the very few remaining members of the species. More alarming still was the creeping realization that they were now solely responsible for the future of all of mankind. It was frighteningly clear that the ancient protocols and dogmas of past generations had led to the destruction of virtually all humans. What was needed was a new and different point of view. A petite dark-haired girl named Xea would provide much of this fresh perspective.
