Summary

Ship hurtles through space. Deep within its core, it carries the seed of humankind. Launched by the people of a dying Earth over a century ago, its mission is to find a habitable world for the children-fifteen-year-old Zoheret and her shipmates-whom it has created from its genetic banks. To Zoheret and her shipmates, Ship has been mother, father, and loving teacher, preparing them for their biggest challenge: to survive on their own, on an uninhabited planet, without Ship's protection. Now that day is almost upon them...but are they ready to leave Ship? Ship devises a test. And suddenly, instincts that have been latent for over a hundred years take over. Zoheret watches as friends become strangers-and enemies. Can Zoheret and her companions overcome the biggest obstacle to the survival of the human race-themselves?

Table of Contents

PRAISE FOR PAMELA SARGENT:

“Sargent, without fanfare or hoopla, has become a strikingly able and unusual storyteller... Her real forte is characterization, an ability to dissect and lay open the fears, passions, and yearning of the intensely human people who invariably inhabit her books.”
—Michael Bishop, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“Sargent is a sensitive writer of characterization rather than of cosmic gimmickry.”
—Publishers Weekly

“Sargent’s ability to combine characters, ideas, and action marks her as a promising new writer.”
—Susan Wood, Locus

“Pamela Sargent is one of the leaders in a new generation of SF novelists. She moves you through strange dimensions, she gives you people you can care about, she thinks deeply. I find her irresistible.”  —Gregory Benford
