"First Contact" is a completed space opera that delves into the aftermath of Earth's "Glassing" eight thousand years later. Humanity, now part of the Terran Descent, has evolved into a post-scarcity society focused on consent and enjoying life. The discovery of an ancient race across the "Great Gulf" propels the Terran Confederacy into a war against an empire with a hundred million years of victories. The story unfolds largely from the perspectives of other species and involves graphic violence, war, adult language, and mature themes. It's a tale of humanity's resilience and defiance against the universe's challenges.
