The Andromeda Evolution (Andromeda #2)

by Daniel H. Wilson

We are facing an unknown enemy who is staging an attack over the gulf of a hundred thousand years and across our solar system and likely the cosmos. This is a war, Nidhi, and you are on the front lines of it. I repeat.

This is such an amazingly dumb thing for a supposedly brilliant scientist to say.

“All of it was classified, but Stern must have known. My birth name was Jamie Ritter. Fifty years ago, I was one of two survivors of the first Andromeda incident. I was the baby.”

This is both not surprising and really, really stupid.
