A new world. A reluctant colony. And the infinite future of humanity hanging in the balance.
Proxima Centauri b is a planet orbiting the closest red dwarf to Earth. Harsh, untamed, and light-years from home, it offers a chance for survival in a galaxy where Earth is becoming increasingly unstable. But no one wants to be a settler. Forced into exile, the colonists face isolation, danger, and the crushing weight of the unknown.
As war brews back in the solar system and tensions rise among the stranded, the dream of a second Earth grows fragile.
Proxima is a sweeping hard science fiction epic from acclaimed author Stephen Baxter, exploring colonization, survival, and humanity’s desperate reach for a future beyond the stars.
