Thus begins the colonization of this brave new world--a process that inevitably slips into a tragedy of biblical proportions. The two communities who undertook the voyage originally united in peace and a shared vision of a fresh beginning. Once isolated in a landscape of cruel majesty and minimal resources, however, ancient enmities begin to tear them apart. Related alternately by Petja, from the Alsist people, and Barlei (a Senaarian), their different voices, perspectives, and experiences come together to make an unusually rich and complex story about the fragility of life. A remarkable debut novel. "...in the same vein as Frank Herbert's Dune...accomplished, engaging and fascinating."--Locus. "...brilliantly written."--Starlog.<br></div> 935053 2000 Salt total:32|5:5|4:18|3:6|2:2|1:1| 32 120 64 5 4 0 false false Sun Jun 29 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 29 09:49:09 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 29 10:01:03 -0700 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Wed Aug 12 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 16:10:37 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 16:11:32 -0700 2009
