This volume comprises <i>The Star Fraction</i> and <i>The Stone Canal</i>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In a balkanized future of dizzying possibilities, mercenaries contend with guns as smart as they are, nuclear deterrence is a commodity traded on the open market, teenagers deal in theologically correct software for fundamentalists, and anarchists have colonized a planet circling another star. Against this background, men and women struggle for a better future against the betrayals that went before. Death is sometimes the end, and sometimes something altogether different... <p/>This volume comprises <i>The Star Fraction</i> and <i>The Stone Canal</i>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Should make those who've been crying that British SF can't work for an American audience think twice. This is strong stuff, full of ideas and yet with a hard-driving plot, and readers whose taste extends beyond good-guys/bad-guys adventure stories ought to love it." --<i>Asimov's SF on The Stone Canal</i> <p/>"Science fiction's freshest new writer...MacLeod is a fiercely intelligent, prodigously well-read author who manages to fill his books with big issues without weighing them down." --<i>Salon</i> <p/>"As much fun as these books provide, it's that fierceness, that seriousness of purpose, that powers their engines and makes me want to read on." --<i>Locus</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>KEN MACLEOD's SF novels have won the Prometheus Award and the BSFA award, and been shortlisted for the Hugo and Nebula Awards. He lives near Edinburgh, Scotland.</p>
