Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. A handful of humans and a multitude of robots create a new society on an abandoned Earth in this novel by the Nebula Award-winning author of Way Station. What if you woke up one morning on Earth . . . and no one else was there? That is the reality that greeted a handful of humans, including Jason Whitney, his wife Martha, and the remnants of a tribe of Native Americans in the year 2135. Their inexplicable abandonment had unexpected benefits: the eventual development of mental telepathy and other extrasensory powers, inner peace, and best of all, near-immortality. Now, five thousand years later, most of the remaining humans live a tranquil, pastoral life, leaving technological and religious exploration to the masses of robot servants who no longer have humans to serve. But the unexpected reappearance of Jason's brother, who had teleported to the stars many years before, threatens to change everything yet again?for John Whitney is the bearer of startling information about where Earth's population went and why?and the most disturbing news of all: They may finally be coming home again.
