Trying to identify a science fiction novel involving humans colonizing an alien planet
Trying to identify science fiction story: world with extreme seasonsTrying to identify pre-1970s short story involving multiple humans absorbed into an alien blobIdentify a YA science fiction novel from the 70sTrying to identify a science fiction spoof movie about a singing alienStory with colony ships operated by disembodied brainsScience Fiction - Space expedition - Carnivorous plants in an alien planetLook for title science fiction novel: Alien view point, trying to find a new homeLooking for a short story or novel about humans colonizing a planet with bearlike nativesBook name for Epic novel about colonizing a large planetScience Fiction novel where humans had multiple personalities called “Daemons”
I had thought the title was either "Children of Eve" or "Eve's Children" but searching turns up several books with those titles, none of these are the right one. These are the plot details I can recall:
1. Some sort of environmental breakdown had occurred on Earth long before the events of this story. Whatever it was hadn't happened quickly, though, as the human race had time to establish a Project that took YEARS to prepare for, which involved sending ships out into space to settle humanity on other worlds.
2. We know the Project took years to develop, as the main character remembers her parents working on it when she was a child.
3. The plan was to send carefully selected crews on these ships, in suspended animation, along with a cargo of human DNA.
4. Something went wrong with this particular ship and main character (Eve?) was the only crewmember to survive the suspension process, she then had to basically rear her ship's contingent of children by herself.
