Earthborn

by Orson Scott Card

On board a starship above Earth, Shedemai sleeps. As lone survivor of the Children of Wetchik, the Oversoul periodically wakes her to watch over her descendants. Despite years of searching, the Oversoul still hasn't located the Keeper of Earth; the only thing that can repair it's damaged programming.
