Inhaltsangabe

New graduate John Barrson’s first field mission ends in tragedy, when he sacrifices himself to save the life of a fellow agent in the Earth’s Planetary Atmospheric Protection Society, only to find he’s been “resurrected” in a new body, with his memories downloaded and intact.John meets his saviors, the Curators - an alien race controlling the faraway artificial planet called the Library. The Curators created the Library a billion years ago to record and preserve knowledge from all known species in the galaxy, using recruits called Watchers. Upon awakening, John is given the choice between becoming a Library Watcher or death.John reluctantly begins his training among aliens from various worlds, but when conflict erupts between the Curators and the Departed, a splinter Library faction, he is drawn into the fray as an unwilling pawn. Torn between what he knows is right and what the Curators’ rigid rules of non-interventionism allow, John takes matters into his own hands and brings together a team that, against all odds, tries to find a way to thwart the Departed’s plan for murder on a planetary scale.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Gabriel Ionita was born in Bucharest, Romania, and lived in Vienna, Prague, Riyadh, Montreal and Toronto. He is a business executive by formation, and worked his entire career in marketing and product management divisions of large telecommunication companies. He was always a storyteller, though, and wanted to commit his thoughts to paper. He writes science fiction and has a love-hate relationship with the white pages - he hates them white and loves them brimming with words. Gabriel lives in San Jose, California, with his wife Cristina and their daughter, Anna Sophie, and is a Montreal Canadiens fan.
