Critic reviews

"[T]his multigenerational saga explores the social drama of planetary colonization and its implications for humankind. Recommended." (Library Journal)

Just as good as the first

This book is the second in the trilogy and it was better than the first. Again, Ms. Sargent keeps you on the edge of wanting to know more. I love reading science fiction and this book did not fail in providing some very thought provoking ideas of how science may assist in meeting the needs of the future. This is a must read for all fans of science fiction.

Epic. So glad I found this again.

This book will have multiple triggers, trauma survivors should steel themselves. This book is a deep dive into sociology and the human condition. Stunning.
