Homecoming
Book 5: Earthborn

The fifth and last volume in Card's sprawling Homecoming saga. High above the Earth orbits the starship Basilica. On board the huge vessel is a sleeping woman. Of those who made the journey, Shedemai alone has survived the hundreds of years since the Children of Wetchik returned to Earth. She now wears the Cloak of the Starmaster, and the Oversoul wakes her sometimes to watch over her descendants on the planet below. But in all these years of watching, it has not found the Keeper of Earth, the central intelligence that alone can repair the Oversoul's damaged programming.
