First People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798253902769)

When humanity's ancient past collides with its galactic future, the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance.
Six thousand years ago, the great civilizations of Xi and Kemet fled a dying Earth, carrying the flame of human consciousness to the stars. Now, their descendants have built a thriving galactic empire among distant worlds-but Earth was never truly forgotten.
Dr. Mateo Vasquez, a descendant of those ancient refugees, discovers impossible signals emanating from humanity's lost homeworld. The transmissions speak of life returning to Earth, but they also carry a terrifying warning: a hostile alien force known as the Zephyrians is approaching, intent on conquest and destruction.
Racing against time, Mateo must steal a ship and journey back to the world his ancestors abandoned millennia ago. What he finds there will challenge everything humanity thought it knew about survival, unity, and the price of freedom. Earth's primitive inhabitants are divided and unprepared for the coming storm, while the advanced Terra colonies face an agonizing choice: risk everything to save their ancestral home, or watch the birthworld of humanity fall to an alien empire.
Written in the tradition of Isaac Asimov's grand space operas, "The First People" is an epic tale of exodus and return, of ancient wisdom and future hope. Mohammad Bahareth weaves together themes of technological evolution, political intrigue, and the unbreakable bonds that connect all branches of the human family across the vast darkness of space.
From the desperate negotiations that forged the original alliance between Earth's dying civilizations, to the climactic battle that will determine humanity's place in the galaxy, this sweeping narrative explores what it truly means to be human when faced with extinction. It's a story of courage in the face of impossible odds, of unity emerging from division, and of the enduring power of hope to light the way through the darkest of times.
Perfect for fans of Foundation, Dune, and Hyperion, "The First People" delivers hard science fiction with heart, combining rigorous scientific speculation with deeply human characters facing the ultimate test of their species' survival.
The stars are calling. Will humanity answer?
