Bing Walter, alien, has been given a human body (more or less) by his superiors and he’s an advance scout to prepare Earth for extra terrestrial contact. His mission: to get a job with TIME Magazine and once there, insert a cover story detailing the forthcoming arrival of an alien spaceship. His home planet has been sending out signals, but humans are not getting the message. Bing feels perhaps the UNIVAC computer at S.E.T.I. - which calls itself Rufus - would be more helpful...but the message code is so simple, that even Rufus needs help figuring it out and humans haven't got an earthly!

Book I of A Requiem for Homo Sapiens. Into the maze of colour-coded streets of ice a wild boy stumbles, frost-bitten and grieving, clutching a spear: Danlo the Wild, a messenger from the past of Man. Brought up far from Neverness by the Alaloi people, neanderthal cave-dwellers, Danlo alone of his tribe has survived a plague - because he is not, as he thought, a misshapen neanderthal - but because he is human, with immunity engineered into his genes. He learns the disease was created and the creators possess a cure which can save other Alaloi tribes. But the creators have migrated to the region of space known as the Vild and there they are killing stars. All of civilisation has converged on Neverness through the manifold of space travel. Beyond science, beyond decadence, sects and disciplines multiply there. Danlo, his mind shaped by primitive man, brings to Neverness a single long-lost memory that will challenge them all.
