Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Set in the late 21st century, the story follows Marianne, a young woman from one of the orbital habitats known as Worlds. As she embarks on her first journey to Earth for a year-long educational tour, she becomes immersed in various groups and events that reveal the complex political tensions between the Worlds and Earth. The situation is further complicated by the fragmentation of the USA into multiple republics and dominions, each with distinct socioeconomic conditions, adding layers to the geopolitical landscape. As the narrative progresses, earlier hints and details coalesce, leading to an exhilarating climax that leaves readers eager for more. The pacing accelerates dramatically towards the end, setting the stage for the continuation of the story in the subsequent book. The two works are designed to be read together, with the resolution of the buildup in the first book only fully realized in the second. Readers who choose to buy the first installment alone may find themselves unsatisfied. Together, these books create a gripping narrative that stands out as some of the best work from the author, surpassing even his renowned title, The Forever War.
