Synopsis

A handful of immortals born throughout human history — a Phoenician sailor, a Chinese alchemist, a Native American woman — survive the centuries in secret, searching for others like themselves. Spanning from ancient times to a distant spacefaring future, the novel chronicles their lonely endurance through wars, plagues, and revolutions as they finally converge in the modern era to face a transformed world.
