Imagine a world without role models. A world thrown into chaos. A world full of the wrong morales. Everyone cheats and lies to get a head. No one can be trusted not even family. However this won't happen because there are many good role models. One of the best way to find a good role model is to read a book.

Hope is the only thing that can keep him going. The hope of of getting home to his planet. Reviving the nearly dead planet. Starting a new life with the other six. No longer living in fear that they could die at anytime. Four shows that hope needs to be held on to, by the fact that he keeps
