Info su questa serie
Human beings have long since left the surface of the Mother Planet, Earth, and so much time has passed they barely remember it.
They have established themselves as the predominant form of life among the stars and all the while they expand, colonize and multiply undisturbed. At times they are at peace, other times they quarrel with one another in an endless strife of meaningless skirmishes.
But one day the balance is broken. A terrible alien race, relentless and apparently unstoppable, now threatens to upset this delicate order and wash away over twelve millennia of progress and expansion.
People in the Milky Way call them Herem, the Anathem…
BOOK FIVE: SPECKLES OF DUST
Fourteenth stellar millennium
Winnet is a brilliant scholar, endeavoring to climb the ranks of one of the most important and ancient organization in the galaxy: the Galactic Chronicles, until he is suddenly called back to Protos to be given a new, peculiar assignment: he will be required to travel to the organization’s “main offices” to perform a task he still can’t quite picture, and the goals of which he completely ignores.
Is this a prize? Or are they just trying to shove him out of the way in favor of his more promising rivals?
Whatever the answer… it seems that all he can really do now is look for it himself.

Emra is a brilliant scholar, a man who traveled the galaxy far and wide and lived on dozens of worlds. He is solitary and extremely jealous of his work, especially now that he's working for the army, trying to pry the secrets behind the Herem's very existence and feeling close to a sensational discovery. But now, a group of young PhD candidates from the Otamendi Academy has reached Araia, looking to upgrade their resumes. They are determined and willing go well out of their way to surpass their companions, and some of them have taken an interest in Emra’s study of “cerebros”: a colorful name for the mysterious Alien organisms which seem to be responsible for the Herems’ thought processes. Meanwhile, the shadow of a terrible epidemic looms over Araia and its population. Just when he feels he's getting close to a breakthrough… Emra could very well be out of time.

The charge seem's boring enough when a brutal homicide, both cruel and unexpected, upsets the entire station, and Milla is suddenly burdened with a different and unwanted task: to find the killer. Her discoveries will take her far away from Protos, on the threshold of Human territories and then beyond, well within the boundaries of Herem-controlled space, where she will set foot on the surface of a world long since abandoned, one where she hopes to find an invaluable treasure: the research, once thought lost, of late Professor Emra Arkadiev.
