How far are you willing to go to find your destiny?Ten years in the future, intelligent life has been detected on a planet almost 500 light years from Earth. Christian billionaire Charles Watkins builds a multi-generational missionary starship: since no vessel can travel faster than light, the ship is large enough to sustain several generations for the journey. But something goes wrong during the launch and now, hundreds of years into the trip, the inhabitants of the Saint Paul have not only forgotten their true purpose, they have forgotten they are on a ship. Lifeboat tells the story of what happens when Josiah Amon and his friends learn the truth about their world.And what happens when the ship reaches its destination.
