Papillon IV, C B Strul

"In the village of Nikke, more than 1000 years in the future, a youngster named Ao is in trouble. She can't stop fighting with her youngest sibling. So the elders make a bold decision to send her off to study with the mysterious entity known as Odom.

Once Ao arrives in Odom's Library, she is presented with ten strange tales. Ancient Earth calls for an initiative to clean up the planet. They send the majority of humanity's excess waste into space - on the back of a recently derelict ark spacecraft.

What the people of Earth don't realize is the effect this payload will have on the alien race of an unknown world.

A space opera unlike anything you've read before, these are the collected tales of Papillon IV."
