Lumera Expedition

The world is on the brink of destruction. Will humanity survive? The coasts are flooding. Entire countries are wiped off the map. All over the world, people are fleeing inland. In 2042, there is only one season left: summer. Food has become increasingly scarce, diseases are spreading, and more and more people die every day. Now, in a frantic attempt to save mankind, the government wants to inject all citizens with brainbots to protect against diseases. Julia Jennings, billionaire heiress and freedom fighter, suspects that there is more to it. Her father, Peter Jennings, experiences the consequences of the intervention himself in a dramatic way. FBI Agent John Stanhope is also unsure whether the state can avert the climate apocalypse. The last hope of mankind could be gigantic, ark-like spaceships, which embark for another solar system. Destination: the planet Lumera. Arrival time: the 24th century. Can humanity save itself and ensure its continued existence? Or is it its own greatest enemy? Complete climate collapse, deadly government conspiracies, and an exodus to a distant planet. The Lumera Expedition series is a fascinating sci-fi thriller about the desperate struggle for survival and the legacy of mankind from Germany's bestselling sci-fi author Jona Sheffield.

A new home planet, alien life forms, old and new enemies. Can humanity alter its fate? More and more space arks are landing on Lumera. The humans' new home is breathtakingly beautiful, but dangerous plants and bestial predators punish every careless step. Sophisticated aliens keep themselves hidden, and they may be superior to humans. The human colony is beset by internal conflict. A civil war threatens. After their banishment from the colony, rebel Julia Jennings and her comrades-in-arms find refuge with the alien Kidj'Dan, a telepathically-gifted alien race. But what these new allies are really up to is unclear. Are the renegades safe here, or in insidious captivity? Suddenly, an unlikely call for help arrives - from General Lenoir, who previously disowned the group. How can the heroes protect themselves from human tyranny and unpredictable alien allies? Where do the uncanny mutations that suddenly occur lead? Julia, her father Peter, and former FBI investigator, John Stanhope, are not giving up the fight against evil - whether human, lumerian or biotechnically mutated. The Lumera Expedition series takes readers to a breathtaking planet caught up in humanity's ancient problems. Exciting, fast-paced, and profound, it illuminates the journey of colonizing a dangerous, yet endangered, world.

The hope of the living are the dead. A desperate distress call from Earth reaches the new colony on Lumera. Now, the fate of all life in the universe as we know it is at stake. An enemy believed dead threatens the peace between humans and Kidj'Dan: Dr. Elias Fox, the unscrupulous politician, has mutated into a walking superweapon thanks to his hyperbots, and has only one goal: revenge. Julia Jennings and her friends join forces to face the new threats. With a Kidj'Dan spaceship, Julia, John Stanhope, and Ondras go on a rescue mission back to Earth. Aided by President Lenoir, Peter Jennings stays on Lumera and searches the dangerous jungles of Lumera for Anastacia, who was lost in the war. However, the discovery of technology from a lost alien culture could alter life in the universe forever and avert the apocalypse on Earth. Will humans and Kidj'Dan put the artifacts to good use? Or will they meet the same fate as the culture that once created these wonders? The Lumera Expedition series reaches its brilliant climax: together with friends old and new, humanity fights not only for its own survival, but for the fate of all life in the universe.

Two worlds, two species, one conflict...and one hope. The Earth is dying. For centuries, the continents have been sinking into the oceans. What is left of them has turned into a burning desert. In the 24th century, the last humans live in tightly-packed domes. Outside, agonizing heat death awaits. But, there is a glimmer of hope: Lumera. The humans have founded a colony in another solar system and made a fragile peace with the Kidj'Dan, an alien race living there. But terraforming, which the telepathic aliens hope will help Earth's inhabitants, takes more time than Earth has. A wave of refugees breaks out on Earth: millions flock to the space portal that connects Earth with the new world. But the Kidj'Dan want to prevent any uncontrolled influx to Lumera by force of arms. A humanitarian catastrophe threatens the survival of both races. The new president of the Lumera colony is stretched to his breaking point because he must mediate between Earth and the Kidj'Dan. The work of a geoscientist gives him hope: an uninhabited continent on Lumera could be populated with inhabitants of Earth. But who should explore it? Only those who have made many sacrifices for the Lumera expedition and are scarred by it can be considered. The situation is hopeless. Project Eden is the last chance for both worlds. The Lumera Expedition series continues humanity's struggle for survival in her own distinctive way: visionary, profound, and, above all, extremely exciting.

On Earth, desperate survivors flock to the portal, hoping for a better life on Lumera. As passage is denied, the situation threatens to escalate. A team of humans and Kidj'Dan sets out to recover more portals to restore peace, but they find a deadly threat that can be turned into a fearsome weapon. The powder keg threatens to explode. How far does the trust in the counterpart reach? Who will press the red button first? Humans and Kidj'Dan are on edge. How do you engage a friend who has become the enemy? A nerve-wracking poker game begins. The opponent: an alien species. The stakes: the lives of all humans. In this next book in the Lumera Expedition series, Jona Sheffield continues humanity's fight for survival in her own distinctive way: visionary, profound and, above all, extremely exciting.
