Downloading The Earth Hypothesis (Part 1)

Vaal science officer Jhilly Rosbrin's ship is stranded in orbit above a blue-green planet called Earth. What she finds there could spark a revolution. The Vaal govern most of the known universe, incorporating planets and people into their empire. They take what they want, enslave whom they want, and rule virtually unchallenged. Jhilly's safe life is shaken when she discovers a document called "The Earth Hypothesis" which has been forgotten for three hundred years.
