Description:
Be careful what you wish for. . .
The trip to Alpha Centauri has been Ryan's whole life. He grew up on the starship; he likes it there; the immense void between stars is part of his world--but other people aren't so lucky.
The other colonists developed many different ways of coping with the uncertainty of the voyage. Some grew daffodils, some delved into science. . . and some got religion. They all wanted the same thing: to find a habitable planet at the end of their journey, but nobody expects their hopes and prayers to be answered quite so abundantly. Finding one planet would be a cause for celebration, but finding two could tear the crew, and its families, apart.
