Synopsis: Broken Journey
Felicia Avar left earth as a sleeper, knowing she would awake at some distant future time on a new world which she and her companions would settle. However, when she awakes it's to see a stranger standing over her. There should be no strangers on the ship. She knows something as gone wrong.
A disaster during the journey brought several of the sleepers awake. They lived and died on the ship, but eventually the group has found a world. It has been settled for three generations, and the last of the sleepers have been awakened because the pods were failing.
They've been dropped into a culture they don't understand, the work they were trained for useless since the world is already settled, and facing trouble with an alien race that may have been responsible for the disaster in space.
