For the First Time, Again Summary

For the First Time, Again by Sylvain Neuvel

Discover history's biggest secret . . .

For millennia an unbroken line of alien mothers and daughters have secretly been shepherding human technology towards the stars.

Twelve-year-old Aster is the last of this line.
But the loss of her mother in early life means she knows nothing of her alien heritage - believing she is just an ordinary young girl.

Not only is she about to discover how wrong she is - but she'll also learn she's not the only alien on Earth: others are here to stop her.

Yet with revelation comes recovery.
Now Aster has a purpose.
Her life, the future of her species
and that of all life on Earth is at stake.

She's history's biggest secret.
But can she save the future?

'Alt-history with a difference' GUARDIAN

Praise for Sylvain Neuvel * - *
It's fascinating to see how Neuvel weaves together fact and fiction . . . a blast. Seriously clever * SFX *
An alt-history with a difference. Traces the true story of the development of rocket science but adds an alien-conspiracy-theory edge . . . Good fun * Guardian *
Wry narration, wired action . . . Fans of alternate history and intelligent sci-fi will love this * Publishers Weekly *
