Coles An Isle so Sweet and Kind: 1: Colonizing Alpha Centauri at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
They escaped from the Corps mining rigs in the asteroid belt only to find themselves trapped as digital signals on an exploration probe. Tumbling from one catastrophe to another, they transferred to the surface before they were found out and a virus was sent after them. Inadvertent colonizers of Alpha Centauri, they find themselves tweaking their code in order to build on the surface, worry that one of them is conspiring against the rest, and fear that the Corps will attack at any moment in the form of robotic drones. Even while they are confronted with the strangeness of themselves, they are terrified that the hidden dangers of their new planet might prove to be an overwhelming challenge.
Follow our intrepid team of five as they survive abandonment on the surface, hurricanes and floods, being lost in caverns and jungle, and odd beasts wandering an alien jungle. Ultimately a story about happiness, they have to decide whether they want to remain in the virtual world, with its fantastical imagery and easily manipulated backgrounds, leave in hope of a better harbour, or transfer to either meat or metal as they acclimatize to the surface of a planet not made for humans or their machines.
