Alltomorrows (2008) is a book written and illustrated by Nemo Ramjet. It tells the story of the human race in the next billion years, counting from the date man colonized other planets to his defeat at the hands of another species, to the formation of an empire of the descendents of humanity.

plot

The narration begins with the terraforming of Mars, because of the growing population of the earth to reach the 12 billion plus the damage to the environment, and driven by the political unification of the entire planet. After several centuries, most of the companies operating land on Mars, which allowed the earth to recover. Despite this, governments began to independence of mars from the earth for genetic reasons and policies. The earth, very dependent on the resources of Mars, refused to it, causing a civil war that resulted in the death of 8 billion people.

Survivors to avoid repeating the event decided to create a new human subspecies that happen. Despite the moral and biological, memories of the war were still echoing in the minds of those who remained. In one generation, the new subspecies achieving the results you had planned, and over time began to extend its dominance of the solar system and then among the stars, which caused them to be called: the Star People. To achieve interstellar colonization tried several options, one of the most feasible was to send ships full dl genetic material of humanity to reach the planet, would be recreated by semi-sensitive machines then would raise. Although I run, half of the first generation that was created had an affection for the machines and a disdain for those of his own species, which caused his downfall, but the other part survived and prospered.

several centuries, the star people manages to communicate a colony with other colonies, creating a galactic empire was at its peak. during development, noted that despite having found alien life, never able to find intelligent life in the galaxy, they see this as a strange phenomenon, which makes considering humans as an oddity or divine creation. everything takes an unexpected turn when suddenly on a newly colonized planet found fossilized dinosaur, named Panderavis pandora, as it was a land animal found alien. I take this as a warning about the possible existence of entities far older than the man.

after a while, the first contact occurs with an alien species known as the Qu, a race of billions of years old, known to be masters of nanotechnology and genetic manipulation. With this ability to control the material world, they assumed a religious, self-imposed mission to remake the universe as they saw fit. In less than a thousand years, every human world was destroyed, depopulated, or transformed by the invaders. only a few pockets of resistance were formed which were stifled. during the rule of the Qu, a remnant of the star men in large ships survived refuge-like asteroids, known as Spacers

for 40 million years, Qu dominated the galaxy, but then disappeared for no apparent reason. after they left the galaxy, thousands of genetically modified human species began to evolve and adapt on the planets were created. many of them become extinct, but others survive and evolved millions of years later, in new intelligent species
