How do you stop a war that is officially over? In Distant Horizons, Random Arthur Hause, a former history teacher/baseball coach seeks a solution to that problem. The story begins with Random and Sarah Elizabeth Snow traveling by sea from Echo World's Savannah Station to Echo World's Patagonia to begin an archeological survey of alien ruins. Along the way, Random and Sarah are joined by a collection of characters. Random and his friends and allies soon discover that the War of Independence may be over, but the enemy has no intention of surrendering. Along the way, Random and Sarah also discover that, even during war, life continues. They learn there are more important things in life than politics and war. M. A. Roberts uses a combination of history, technology, and a dose of 'what if' to create an interesting and believable alternative future. Lisa Corson created the beautiful cover art for Distant Horizons, as she has also done for the earlier titles in the series, Opportunity Calls and Challenges.
