"A taut, expertly researched techno-thriller." -Gregory Benford, author of
Timescape
In shock and grief, the last remnants of the human race watched from space as the holocaust of war raged across the face of the Earth. Now the future rested in the hands of three fragile space colonies:
Aguinaldo-The Philippine L-five colony whose brilliant biochemist engineered a limitless supply of food.
Kibalchich-The Soviet space exploration platform that harbors a deadly secret.
Orbitech one-The American space factory whose superstrong weavewire could be a lifeline to link the colonies-or a cutting-edge weapon of destruction.
As allies, they could unite to rebuild a better world. As enemies, they could destroy mankind's last hope for survival.
"Fanatics, autocrats, scientists, and peacemakers wage their own battle of wills in the isolation of space in this well-written first novel." -
