Falcon's Egg
From the Aurora Award-winning author of Marseguro (DAW Books) comes a fast-paced space opera about first contact – with a difference.
When Art Stoddard, civilian information officer of the generation starship Mayflower II, is kidnapped by a secret military organization determined to overthrow the power of the Captain and Crew, he becomes embroiled in a conflict that tests everything he believed to be true, forced to choose between preserving social order and restoring the people’s right to know.
Art's problems only escalate when he is ripped from the safety of his ship by the mysterious residents of Peregrine. He becomes a pawn in a game that will determine the fate of ship and planet alike. As he and his newfound friends rush to save both, he faces questions of courage, loyalty and moral responsibility.
