L. Z. Dáin has spent years exploring the truth behind the writings of scientists, philosophers and visionaries down the ages, and discovered that our story as Humans is far more marvelous than the conventional views of it. He is intrigued by the mystery of Humans: Are we truly children of the Earth, or are we star born? If we came from the stars, doesn't our destiny lie out there? And what is our place among the many galactic civilizations? The Aïdin Horizon books are the product of this quest - a collection of tales for those who love broader horizons and new possibilities. --- Author's Statement: "There's always a thirst for new stories and tales, different ones... stories about a positive future, not idealistic but realistic... The Universe isn't our enemy, even though many today tell us so. And stories of Earth's future often speak about dystopias. We don't see it in that way. We know the future is what we make of it, and that we are never short of the power to create a better future for us all. For this reason, we decided to tell stories we believe are more accurate of what's really out there, beyond our planet, and beyond our present... stories of a more hopeful future, since the longing for such a future already resides in most human hearts."
