Somewhere between the breath of life and the cold steel of sentience, a young boy fights his primal nature in a world unlike any other. For young Devin has seen death before--and everything in his nature has turned him against the humanity he harbors. After being rescued from onboard a colony spaceship after a terrible disaster, 13-year-old Devin has found a new life alongside his sentient savior, a robot named Ark. In Ark's care Devin grows up a calculating and careful young man, with only dark memories of other human beings. In the wake of his budding adolescence, Ark and her companion Rue hatch a plan to return young Devin to his homeworld in the hopes of restoring whatever humanity remains. However, the transition will not be an easy one and perhaps it may even be too late to save the boy. What lies ahead is a journey of peril both within and without as Devin must make the trek back to Earth and rediscover what it means to be human--even if it means becoming someone completely different...
