The Casitian Universe Omnibus (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781737725169)

This is an updated version of all three books of the original Casitian Universe trilogy.

Casitians Return

In The Casitians Return, life on Earth changes forever when aliens of human origin arrive with a startling new mandate, and the technology to enforce it.The aliens are here--and they are us. Or rather, they are human beings from another star system who have come to reunite the two branches of humanity, whether we like it or not. These aliens (who are called Casitians since their planet is called Casiti, ) are mandated by the Galactic Council to make earth a more enduring, peaceful and sustainable community -- not so much for people, but for dolphins, the true galactic citizens. Predictably, many Earth humans resist, and the Casitians unveil a surprising solution: Earth humans are given the option to migrate to a whole new planet.There is Joel, a SETI scientist, who is first denounced, then vindicated, when he discovers an alien signal. Marianne, a whip-smart programmer, is chosen as the first contact, and she has to juggle the complexities of telling the world even as she is emotionally drawn to the mysterious Casitian, Ja'el. Follow them and a whole host of Earth and Casitian characters in this engaging exploration of what might happen when humans meet... ourselves.

Story of New Earth

The Story of New Earth is Volume 2 of the Casitian Universe series. This novel takes off where "The Casitians Return" left off. Many human beings from Earth have settled on a new planet, called "New Earth." This planet is large and verdant, and a wide variety of people have begun to make their home there. Follow the New Americans, led by Gerard, who failed in his attempt to gain the US Presidency during the "Casitian Crisis." Leticia and Beatrice, Marianne's neices, travel far and wide. Humans on Earth and on New Earth learn of a new danger that they must contend with. Marianne comes back to New Earth, humans are put on trial by the Galactic Community, and the Casitians must face the consequences of their actions.

Human Untied

"Humans Untied" is Volume 3 of the Casitian Universe Trilogy. This novel takes off where "The Story of New Earth" (Volume 2) left off.Things on Earth and New Earth are settling down, but then Terrans are faced with an almost insurmountable task, and are getting no help at first from the Casitians in pulling it off. In addition, things get hairy for humans all over the galaxy, as a new Edict from the Galactic Council means enormous changes in human life, all over the galaxy. Marianne and Ja'el reunite, and help the next generation, including Marianne's neices, with a daunting task: preparing New Earth for massive immigration of Humans from Earth. And they all know that what happens may well determine history for 1000 years.
