Humanity on Earth has yet to recover from the clodis disease, which led to the largest pandemic in half a century, when a new pathogen emerges that infects only pregnant women. A group of immunological scientists are trying to find out what it is and whether its appearance is related to neutrino flares recorded around the planet.

The population of the Martian Colonies exceeds one hundred thousand inhabitants, and a third of them are born on Mars. They are losing out to super-specialists from Earth in the struggle for jobs in the knowledge-intensive economy of Mars and are forced to work like slaves at low-skilled manual jobs. The more they come of age, the more they yearn for change, unaware that this change threatens the very existence of the Colonies.

"Colony" is the first book in the New Dark Ages fantasy series about the world in the twenty-first century. This is a story about how, despite all the achievements of civilisation, humans do not change, and neither an increase in life expectancy nor even the transformation into a biplanetary species guarantees humanity's salvation.
