The Firstborn, a mysterious alien race first introduced in 2001: A Space Odyssey, have long been a part of Sir Arthur C. Clarke’s science fiction legacy. In the Time Odyssey series, co-authored with Stephen Baxter, they seek to halt human progress using technology akin to magic. Their initial act, the Discontinuity, transformed Earth into Mir, a patchwork world featuring figures like Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan. Bisesa Dutt, a UN peacekeeper, communicates with an alien artifact of immense power, which ultimately returns her to Earth. She becomes crucial in humanity's struggle against a doomsday solar storm orchestrated by the Firstborn, aimed at wiping out all life. This catastrophe is narrowly averted, but at a great cost. Twenty-seven years later, the Firstborn return with a "quantum bomb," an incomprehensible device that threatens to annihilate Earth. Bisesa embarks on a desperate quest for answers, traveling to Mars and then back to Mir, which faces its own extinction. As the situation grows dire, new revelations about the Firstborn's intentions emerge, and an unexpected ally arrives from light-years away, offering a glimmer of hope in a seemingly hopeless scenario.
