Sinopsis

&ldquo,The answer is no, Lyra,&rdquo, my mother utters her favorite&mdash,I swear&mdash,phrase.No means I have to travel with them to another planet&mdash,again.No means leaving all my friends fifty years in the past. Thanks, Einstein.Seventeen-year-old Lyra Daniels can&rsquo,t truly blame Einstein or her parents for their impending move across the Milky Way Galaxy. It&rsquo,s all due to the invention of the Q-net, which made traveling the vast distances in space possible&mdash,with one big caveat: the time dilation. But that never stopped Lyra',s ancestors from exploring the Milky Way, searching for resources and exoplanets to colonize. What they didn&rsquo,t expect to find is life-sized terracotta Warriors buried on twenty-one different exoplanets.... Make that twenty-two.áAs the Galaxy&rsquo,s leading experts on the Warriors, Lyra',s parents are thrilled by the new discovery, sending them&mdash,and her&mdash,fifty years into the future. Her social life in ruins, she fills her lonely days by illegally worming into the Q-net. The only person close to her age is the annoyingly irresistible security officer who threatens to throw her into the brig.After the planet they just left goes silent&mdash,meaning no communications from them at all&mdash,securityá has bigger problems to deal with than Lyra, especially when vital data files go missing. But that',s just the beginning, because they&rsquo,re not as alone as they thought on their new planet... and suddenly time isn',t the only thing working against them.á
