Following the end of the Ciestoy war the Triangulum Galaxy's solar systems are redistributed between the surviving groups, some with relief, some with uncertainty as the new independent systems start exploring their new won freedom. Meanwhile Janet and Steve Barker find themselves stuck six thousand years in the past and while they are still trying to understand what happened, they are thrown into a battle between the Ciestoy and the Serpers. The Star Surfer continues its journey in its search for Earth so Simon Hill can find his way home, while following the new signal that they found; Simon and Sarah uncover some startling truths. Meanwhile on Earth after the Society tried to take control of the planet, resistance groups were formed to fight them.

The story continues where The Simple Wish ends. Simon Hill finds himself lost in a different solar system, but as he looks for clues to the location of Earth, he finds himself the focal point in a much bigger war than the one back on Earth. As he starts out making a living while he searches for the way home, he makes friends that become a family, but as the war heats up. Is it just his imagination or can he sense Janet's hand in the background gently guiding him and his new family during the war.

The simple wish! What would you wish for if you only had one wish? I know some would wish for riches or to fall in love, some would wish for power and long life, others maybe to rule the world, while a few would wish to help mankind or for special powers. It is a hard choice which isn't easy when the rules that everyone is used to suddenly change, causing all known technology to stop working. Chaos rules or so it seems at first but there are some groups who know all about the planetary shift and the change over from technology to magic. Soon they are looking for the few who can fight back against their new magical powers and the only way to hide is not what most would think of...
