About the book: 2020 / Nolds, mysterious aliens from highly developed worlds who managed to break through a window into the world of Styx. A world containing limitless resources, so necessary for any civilization. The Nolds are feared, like all outsiders, for their ruthlessness towards the immune. But are they all like that? Perhaps there are other Nolds who do not see the immune ones as just living consumables for the benefit of their progress? However, does the willful world of Styx even need such Nolds?.
