| A spaceship flees killer machines in this hard science fiction adventure classic, the fifth in the Galactic Center series by a Nebula Award–winning author. “[An]adventure-packed, swiftly paced story line. . . . Drawing on his expertise as a professor of theoretical physics, Benford once again dazzles with his skill at turning well-grounded science into riveting science fiction.” —Booklist Trying to escape the relentless mechs, the last humans from planet Snowglade take their ancient starship on a dangerous course straight into the Eater, the black hole at the galactic center. Hungry and desperate, the refugees begin to question the leadership of Captain Killeen, who believes the center holds their one hope of survival. Meanwhile, Killeen's son Toby struggles with the microchips that were implanted in his spine-a technology that now threatens his sanity. Caught between their genocidal pursuers and peril in the galactic center, Killeen and Toby bring humanity to its final destiny. Features a teaser chapter from The Sunborn. Don’t miss the thrilling conclusion of the Galactic Center series, Sailing Bright Eternity. “The author's fans won't be disappointed with this tautly plotted entry in the series, which by now has eclipsed even Asimov's Foundation saga in ambition, and which still has one more book to go.” —Publishers Weekly |
