What is A Planet of Wrath and Tears: A Leif the Lucky Novel about?

A distant star is calling us. Is it all going to end in tears? Could the opportunity for the first meeting between humanity and an intelligent species from a different star system have come at a worse time? The signal from another star arrives when Earth is only beginning to recover from an apocalyptic cyber- and nuclear war. Transportation is by horse. New construction relies on salvage from the ruins and indoor plumbing is a thing of the past. Former exoplanetary scout Leif Grettison thought he had finally found a home and family to call his own when a messenger rode in, looking for help to deal with the call from the stars. That sends Leif, on horseback, across what used to be the eastern United States to reach Earthbase, the center of humanity’s former program of interstellar exploration. Earthbase is now, however, a shell of its former self with little of the old technology remaining. It has become a small, insular town in the wilderness preoccupied and riven by internal politics. The population is divided over what to do about the signal, the leaders more concerned with power and day-to-day survival. Even those who want to respond are not sure how to do it. Leif’s arrival
