The Far Field Richard L Sosa

Earth and other planets are 'seeded' by an advanced alien species that farms planets for resources every two hundred thousand years. The planet's seed 'creators' have planted this crop on Earth for eons and the seed dominates and flourishes with programmed attributes that facilitate its own destruction. The crop is hominid. Planet Aoife with the help of Captian Rik Onanes, prepares for another invasion. The planet hopes it can defend itself, but the cost will be great. A planet saving defense against thousands of invaders is impossible. When Rik's locator comes back to plant Aoife, he teams up with Iris to use this technology to return to its origination point, present day Earth. They have a Hail Mary plan to introduce a harmless bacterium that will carry a virus that enhances cognitive abilities in humans and their progeny. The survival of Plant Aoife depends on kick starting Earth's enlightenment to become a science-aware world that will partner with them in the war. The hope in the human spirit is that both planets can work in tandem, sharing their developed technology to defeat the aliens. What could possibly go wrong?
