The starship from Earth arrives at the world called Creation expecting to be met by the computer entity that ruled the world, instead they are met by a beautiful woman, Maya. She now represents the planet, but who is Maya, there should be no humans on the planet? Is she real or another computer? The question becomes more important when Maya falls in love with one of the human ambassadors, Victor, from the ship.All of this changes when a menacing presence makes itself known, a presence not of this planet, determined to assassinate Maya. Only by sacrificing himself is Victor able to save Maya. The situation becomes even more dangerous when it is discovered that the assassin was a machine hiding within a living body. Now the crew of the ship are faced with finding out where this menace has come from, and why does it want to assassinate Maya? The survival of the spaceship and Creation now depends on finding where these strange aliens are coming and stopping them from assassinating Maya. This all becomes imperative when the ship is attacked by three enemy spaceships hiding in a distant asteroid belt. The threat becomes even deadlier when it is discovered that these ships are manned by intelligent machines embedded in the bodies of living hosts. To lose the battle means the machines will use the bodies of the crew to embed their clones into. New machines to attack the planet again.

The ship is almost destroyed by a gamma-ray burst from one of the thousands of satellites surrounding the planet. Attempts to contact the civilization on the planet are met with silence; why will the planet not acknowledge their attempts to talk to it? Does it have something to do with the scattered debris of what once were spaceships or the mysterious flashes of light from a distant asteroid belt? These are the questions that must be answered if the crew is to make contact with the first alien civilization that humans have encountered. Instead of answers, they get more questions; what is controlling all the people and the satellites on the planet? Why does it decide that the ship is evil and must be destroyed?A few crew members manage to get past the satellites and onto the planet. There they find a strange civilization ruled by an unknown presence that seems to exist in some of the residents, in the satellites, and almost everywhere on the planet. Whatever this entity is, it came into existence in an instant long ago, taking control, making decisions for the people. In solving the dilemma of the entity, the crew and the ship itself are put in danger again and again. To survive, they must discover what is this entity, why does it want to destroy anything coming from space, why is the planet silent?

Ben was once the greatest of the great Medicine Men. Now a strange visitor from another universe is needing his special gifts, not only to help his people but to save the world from an invasion of monsters. Ben is told of a weapon that can stop the monsters, a weapon hidden in the ancient lands of the Anasazi, a weapon like the ones his ancestors used to slay the sons of the sun. But it will take more than a single weapon to stop the invasion, more than Chester's help, the dog who is much more than he seems to be. He must discover who and where these monsters are coming from. To do this, he must travel to the visitor's universe to find out the terrible secret of why the visitor opened the portal between Earth and the monsters, and why only Ben can close it. He has no choice but to go to the dark world of the monsters, try to avoid being captured and devoured, shut down the portal using only what he believes is the stone dagger that his ancestors once used to stop their mythical monsters, while redeeming himself for what the poison had done to him long ago.
