The last remnants of the human race left a dying Earth, desperate to find a new home. Following their ancestor's star maps, they discovered the greatest treasure of a past age - a world terraformed and prepared for human life. But all is not right in this new Eden. The planet is not waiting for them, pristine and unoccupied. New monsters have turned it from a refuge into mankind's worst nightmare. Now two civilisations are on a collision course and must fight to survive. As the fate of humanity hangs in the balance, who are the true heirs of this new Earth?

Bogged down by one uninteresting faction

The plot of this novel is broken down into two segments, the evolving species and the humans. I found myself very bored with the human subplot and, in the end, feel like it didn't contribute much to the larger narrative and themes. I found myself wanting to skip those chapters to read about the species, which caused weird narrative flows, and I feel like that whole subplot could be boiled down to a chapter or two without losing much
