Book excerpt: Based on Nancy Kress’s Nebula Award-winning novella, “Yesterday’s Kin”, this hard science fiction series explores the limits of human genetics, and the development of human culture on two widely distant planets. “Nancy Kress delivers one of the strongest stories of the year to date.” --Gardner Dozois, editor of The Year’s Best Science Fiction series The Yesterday’s Kin Trilogy discounted ebundle includes: Tomorrow's Kin, If Tomorrow Comes, Terran Tomorrow Tomorrow's Kin: The aliens have arrived... they've landed their Embassy ship on a platform in New York Harbor, and will only speak with the United Nations. They say that their world is so different from Earth, in terms of gravity and atmosphere, that they cannot leave their ship. The population of Earth has erupted in fear and speculation. If Tomorrow Comes: Ten years after the Aliens left Earth, humanity succeeds in building a ship, Friendship, to follow them home to Kindred. Aboard are a crew of scientists, diplomats, and a squad of Rangers to protect them. But when the Friendship arrives, they find nothing they expected. No interplanetary culture, no industrial base—and no cure for the spore disease. Terran Tomorrow: The diplomatic mission from Earth to World ended in disaster, as the Earth's scientists discovered that the Worlders were not the scientifically advanced culture they believed. Once home, after the twenty-eight-year gap caused by their transit through space, they find an Earth changed almost beyond recognition...
