A comet has entered the Earth’s atmosphere and deposited a deadly virus that infects and eventually kills all adults on the planet. Children under the age of 18, however, are immune to the virus. Scientists soon realize that there is no cure for this virus and that people are dying rapidly. They know that the only way to save mankind is to select 251 young people, train them to operate and live on a spaceship and send them to another planet to begin life again. Not everyone on Earth agrees with this decision, however, and some will stop at nothing to sabotage this desperate mission. 224 pages.
