Synopsis

Heatherbound is an agricultural planet, newly settled by a group of dissidents who have become

disenchanted by the politics of Earth. They wish to return to a simpler life. After a long search they find an

uninhabited planet that meets their requirements. They soon find out that this paradise has no natural

resources. All supplies not available on Heatherbound must be supplied by Earth. A marketable product

must be found to trade or Heatherbound will be enslaved by debt.

Kendall McCreight, the colonist biologist, partners with an alien race, the Dasurianians. Kendall aides them

to hibernate while a plant they grow yields enough fuel to return them home. They give him a formula to

make a lightweight material, stronger than steel, in exchange.

Through political intrigue and sibling rivalry, tensions rise to create conflicts between the colonist and the

people of Earth. Earth covets Heatherbound for its endless cornucopia of valuable plants and plans to

invade and conquer.
