   Summary

   Simon thought during his time in the SM-13 that his life was over, so when the SM-13 exploded and he took his final breath he wasn’t surprised. However, he now finds himself waking up somewhere else, and he’s not alone. There’s a man named Ryland Grace and alien rock beings named Rocky and Adrian. Can Simon build a life for himself here?

   Grace has gotten used to his life on Erid. He teaches science to Eridian children. He gets to spend time with his best friends Rocky and Adrian. Grace gets to live in a lovely home and take walks on the beach every day. He can’t imagine how his life could get any better than this; that is until a man named Simon appears in the biodome.
