Synopsis
The first novel in the Forerunner Saga trilogy by science fiction legend Greg Bear--set in the Halo universe and based on the New York Times bestselling video game series One hundred thousand years ago, the galaxy was populated by a great variety of beings.
But one species--eons beyond all others in both technology and knowledge--achieved dominance.
They ruled in peace, but met opposition with quick and brutal effectiveness.
They were the Forerunners--the keepers of the Mantle of Responsibility, the next stage of life in the Universe's Living Time.
And then they vanished.
This is their story.
