The first two books in "the most important series in science fiction" from the
New York Times-bestselling author of
Dreamsnake (Ursula K.Le Guin, author of the Earthsea series).
Starfarers
The
Starfarer is a self-sufficient spaceship with a functioning ecosystem, able to navigate from one star system to another via cosmic string, and it is about to embark on a deep space expedition in search of alien contact. Its global crew has come together in the spirit of cooperation and scientific advancement. But Earth struggles with anti-science and anti-technology factions, and there are those who want to turn the
Starfarer into a military base. One of them is on board. And he will stop at nothing-including sabotage-to enforce his agenda...
Transition
After the crew members of the
Starfarer hijack their own ship, they intercept an alien message and attempt to decipher its complex patterns. It could be an introduction, a warning, or a trap. In Tau Ceti, the first star system humans have ever visited, they discover worlds possessing life but no higher forms of intelligence. And with a saboteur still in their midst, tensions rise as the ship and its team hurtle toward a meeting more than three millennia in the making...

"The most exciting and satisfying science fiction I have read this year." -Ursula K.Le Guin on
