Homeworld, Book of Althea

On the run from their home planet, two refugees, Althea and Jaison, escape to Earth, a planet known to them as Nador. There, they infuse the native life with their DNA, forever altering the course of history. 40,000 years later, struggling writer Melissa Hughes is contacted by a strange device: the Book of Althea. Sent forward in time by Jaison and Althea, the secrets this book contains begin to unlock the long lost knowledge of Humanity’s extraterrestrial origins, sending Mellessa on a quest for the truth. But there are those who would kill to keep this information hidden from the world. And if Melissa doesn’t act fast, the Human Race could face an extinction-level event: the invasion of their Homeworld.
