Centuries after the last humans left Earth, the Exodus Fleet orbits an alien star. Humanity might have been accepted into the galactic community, but the culture on board the Exodus Fleet remains foreign to most of the community. A disaster rocks the fleet, and those that call it their home must grapple with what the purpose is of a ship that has reached its destination.

What was better – a constant safeness that never grew and never changed, or a life of reaching, building, striving, even though you knew you’d never be satisfied?
