A biologist exiled to the prison world of Kiln is forced to confront a dangerous ecosystem and the traces of a vanished civilization. The novel combines meticulously imagined alien life with a story of resistance against authoritarian power.
On a prison world, the real discovery is not just alien life, but the history buried beneath it.
