Produktbeschreibung
From the Aurora Award-winning author of Marseguro (DAW Books) comes a fast-paced space opera about first contact - with a difference. When Art Stoddard, the civilian information officer for the generation starship Mayflower II, is kidnapped by a secret military organization determined to overthrow the Captain and Crew, he becomes embroiled in a conflict that tests everything he believed to be true, forced to choose between preserving social order and restoring the people's right to know. His problems escalate when he's ripped from the safety of his ship by the mysterious residents of the unknown planet that is the ship's destination, and becomes a pawn in a game that will determine the fate of ship and planet alike. As he and his newfound friends rush to save both, he faces questions of courage, loyalty, and moral responsibility.
