The twenty-fifth century finds once-green earth now reduced to snowy 'Terra' but still the seat of all galactic power.
It is from this snowy wasteland that Elle Pepper brings the myth of the Kindred.
A science-fiction mythology of the snowy future Earth now known as Terra, Elle Pepper crafts a careful story that weaves together the six tales of the Kindred of the snows into one single, moving unit. The myth of the Kindred.
From there Elle brings us back to Old Terra, as these fierce proud people call it, to an execution for the sake of honor in 'Honor Among Thieves' and to the very Time Grid itself for "The Life and Death of Tank Jensen."
And finally, Elle brings us to the very edge of civilization to a fringe world called Judica, the home of the Other guardian of justice. The Wanderer.
