When heroes have children, can they not also be heroic? The second volume after "AI's Minion" and the prequel to "The Chronicles of Misty," this tale carries The Brotherhood and its message into a new age in preparation for interstellar exploration. The origin of AI is explained and Chandler's children branch out, driven by their own dreams of what could be. Dax joins the military to teach them how to use AI only to empower the rising emperor, while frustrating a vile cult that sought to destroy the Brotherhood. His sister Harp builds an entirely new form of community that affords The Brotherhood great prosperity and influence in the new imperial government. Their youngest brother Tim creates an entirely new form of communication that sets the stage for a new civilization destined to spread across the universe.
