Book excerpt: Quarnian Dow is a syron, driven by her intuition, anticipating the future and acting without knowing why--just that she has to. Often, she's a hero. Sometimes, she's a thief. Her talent takes her from planet to planet, buffeted by fate and never knowing what it will force her to do. And now, her intuition is leading her to the legendary "Staroamer," a generation ship that vanished centuries ago. But the "Staroamer" has secrets in its vast dark chambers, and they may be have dangers that even a Syron's abilities can't overcome. Praise for "Staroamer's Fate" Worth passing on-- Rothman brings to his novel a certain freshness and vigor which makes "Staroamer's Fate" anything but hackneyed. Very little is dull here. --Dan Chow, "Locus" Nothing profound, but fun. I liked it. --John Betancourt, "Amazing Stories" One of the unique heroines to come along-- This is the sort of action/adventure story that can be enjoyed on several levels, and by people who are not necessarily hard-core SF fans. Definitely a good read. --Roberta Rogow, "Voya"

Book excerpt: The zor is just one of the alien races that humanity encounters when it travels to the stars, and from the very first meeting it has been all-out war. For many years the conflicts have been sporadic, usually ending with an Earth concession and a treaty. But the zor does not respect mankind and has no any intention of honoring the agreements. When the zor decide to mount a surprise attack against human colonies, the normally self-absorbed government of Earth realizes that something must be done before it is too late. A controversial scholar by the name of Marais is brought in. A nonmilitary man, he has spent his entire life studying the zor and claims to have a plan to deal with them once and for all. With so few options remaining, Marais is put in charge of the battlefleet. Earth just wants the threat neutralized and would be happy with a stalemate, but Marais has other ideas. He believes himself to be the mythic Dark Wing, destined to exterminate the zor. . . .

Download or read book Letters written by John Barth and published by Putnam Publishing Group. This book was released on 1979 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark of postmodern American fiction, Letters is (as the subtitle genially informs us) "an old time epistolary novel by seven fictitious drolls and dreamers each of which imagines himself factual". Seven characters (including the Author himself) exchange a novel's worth of letters during a 7-month period in 1969, a time of revolution that recalls the U.S.'s first revolution in the 18th century - the heyday of the epistolary novel. Recapitulating American history as well as the plots of his first six novels, Barth's seventh novel is a witty and profound exploration of the nature of revolution and renewal, rebellion and reenactment, at both the private and public levels. It is also an ingenious meditation on the genre of the novel itself, recycling an older form to explore new directions, new possibilities for the novel.
