On the planet to which broken-down machines and mutants are sent, a mystery is unfolding that will make us question even the very origin of the universe.

Iris is a perfect little girl, but she is labelled ‘useless’ when it is discovered that she is capable of dreaming: this is forbidden throughout the galaxy. That is why she is sent to the ninth planet, where defective children and broken-down machines end up.

In the worst place in the galaxy, she is helped by a clan of mutant children, comprising the amphibian, the heat-sensitive one, the winged one and the two-headed one.

What is Iris’s mission? Why must she unravel the Enigma of Luzazul? Why is the star dying? The answers to these questions lie in an ancient prophecy; its consequences will affect the very origin of the universe.
