Anvil of Change - Book one of The Edge of Destiny. High tech space opera at its finest.
Living in the Eternal Forest, the Joon follow in the ways of peace. Seeing the future with ease, they avoid all pain and conflict and live a contented life. Until the Anvil of Change, the greatest of their visionaries, foresees a terrible danger that cannot be avoided – not without violating all the laws of the Great Mother. Not only must the Joon learn to kill, but they must destroy an entire world, a world inhabited by ten billion people who have done them no harm. And so begins a long and painful journey, where the Joon must learn the ways of war and take to the stars. Converting their moon and transplanting the Eternal Forest, they sojourn through the deeps of space to find and capture a cloud of monstrous comets. Implanting massive gravity generators, they send these icy harbingers of death to a neighbouring star, to the planet earth and the species called human. But the mission is not to destroy the humans – not quite. The Joon must manipulate the future of the humans in not one, but three separate timelines and force them to converge and bring forth the Forge of Time, the human who will bend the very fabric of time itself to his will, the one prophesied to save the people of three worlds from an implacable enemy and build an empire to rule a thousand stars.
