English. The story is completed in one book.
Extract: The year was 2039. Mankind's first contact with an alien species known as Tarsians had ended in hostility. Fast forward seven years ahead, Junior High student Mikako Nagamine finds herself recruited onboard the U.S. Space Force Lysithea, on a mission to discover more about the Tarsians. With her soul mate Noboru Terao still back on Earth awaiting her return, the only means of staying in touch is through messages via their mobile phones. But as her mission takes her further into space, the interval at which her messages reach him translate from weeks into months and then into years. With the other party virtually unreachable and plagued with isolation and self-doubt, all that may be left is an unspoken promise made to each other years ago, and the faint hope that her voice will be heard. |
