In the far future, humanity has spread throughout the cosmos. With sentient AIs and the allies made during First Contact, all thrived as they found and settled new planets together. Then Second Contact comes, and with it, war. From a farm child seeing ships fly overhead, to a TV anchor breaking the news, to augmented resistance fighters on Earth, and electricians working on a fleet of ships as politicians bicker in the background, these are the stories of the people who were there. Told as an anthology with perspectives from every species involved, each story shows us a different facet of the conflict as it unfolds over a decade and beyond. Earth is the epicenter, and whoever prevails on its scarred surface will determine the fate of the other worlds and all those who inhabit them. From those growing up surrounded by the war to those who watched from afar, no one will be untouched by what happened WHEN THEY ARRIVED.
