Stellar
Forced against her will into contact with Karina, Emily thinks the woman almost looks human, but she came off a space ship.
Fifteen hundred years after nuclear Armageddon, hundreds of spaceships land on all corners of United Earth claiming to carry the descendants of those who escaped the war. Having evolved differently from those who remained on Earth, are these beings telling the truth, or is this an alien invasion?
Karina, a representative from the ships and Emily, a native of Earth, must join forces to verify the humanity of the ship’s inhabitants and prevent Earth from succumbing to self-destruction… again.
