Summary
Gregory Benford, in addition to being a well-known author of hard science fiction, is a physicist who has hypothesized about conditions on Earth in the far distant future. All of this expertise comes together in this expansion of his story "Beyond the Fall of Night," which is itself a sequel to Arthur C. Clarke's story "Against the Fall of Night" and Clarke's subsequent 1956 novel THE CITY AND THE STARS. Billions of years from now, a mysterious event has killed all of the remaining true humans except for Cley. In an attempt to escape that fate and her custodians, the genetically enhanced Supras, she leaves Earth for outer space. Eventually, she will have to face the being responsible for the near-extinction of humanity: the magnetic entity known as the Malign.

In the far future, humanity has divided into two diametrically opposed groups.

The two groups, peopled by fascinating characters, clash on a primitive world called Lalonde, setting in motion a tale of adventure unparalleled in this universe.
