The multiple Hugo and Nebula Awardâwinning Grand Master of Science Fiction delivers âan exciting culmination to an ambitious sagaâ (Publishers Weekly). Â Far into the reaches of space, Anson Guthrie and a band of colonists have forged a new existence on Amaterasu not as physical beings but as downloaded consciousness watched over by the benevolent Life Mother. Yet as idyllic as their lives may be, back home on Earth the situation is growing grim. Â Earthâs inhabitants are now completely dependentâand so controlledâby an intelligent machine known as the Teramind. But the instinctual human desire to be free is not something the Teramind has included in its calculations. The seeds of rebellion are growing. Â Suspecting a conspiracy to suppress humankindâs last vestiges of freedom, Guthrie and his loyal companions make a dangerous journey back to Earthârisking everything to preserve humanityâs independent destiny. Â The thrilling conclusion to Andersonâs four-volume, award-winning epic vision of mankindâs evolution, begun in Harvest of Stars, âFleet of Stars is a grand story that gets bigger and better with every pageâ (Larry Bond).
