THE CYMERIAN CHAPTER

"CYMERIA”, a dark, polluted planet inhabited solely by machines, exists millions of miles from Earth. By chance, a vast solar storm throws one of its probes, XL-122, off course. Lost, this tiny explorer crashes into the bedroom of John Couper, an eleven year-old from Costa Mesa, California. THE CYMERIAN CHAPTER tells about the secret partnership formed by the robot and the human being in an effort to understand each other's worlds. Together, this contrasting couple investigates human nature plus earth's ecosystem, organisms, and level of science. We learn that computers are tools of learning not end in themselves."
