Anvil of Stars
The Forge of God described the
destruction of Earth itself by self-replicating robots, Von Neumann
machines designed to use the planet's mass to create more robotic
creatures and spread throughout the Galaxy. Only a few humans have
survived, aided by a mysterious alien race known only as “The
Benefactors”, who arrived at Earth too late.
Now
the small group of human survivors is determined to track down the
criminal race who launched the planet killers. Humanity is given a
starship by The Benefactors, and driven only by revenge they set out to
find the unknown beings who are responsible for the destruction of
Earth, and many other worlds.
