What Is Planet Earth About?
The premise of Planet Earth without spoilers.
The story is set in the 22nd‑century Confederacy, a matriarchal regime that enslaves and renders men impotent. Scientist Dylan Hunt, a vigorous 20th‑century researcher revived from suspended animation, is the Confederacy’s long‑awaited “breeder.” He must decide whether to challenge the regime and free his fellow men or remain a slave on Planet Earth. It continues Gene Roddenberry’s Genesis II.
