A Ship of the Law travels the infinite enormity of space, carrying
eighty-two young people: fighters, strategists, scientists, the
children. They work with sophisticated non human technologies that
need new thinking to comprehend them. They are cut off forever from
the people they left behind. Denied information, they live within a
complex system that is both obedient and beyond their control. They
are frightened. And they are making war against entities whose
technologies are so advanced, so vast, as to dwarf them, against
something whose psychology is ultimately, unknowably alien. Greg
Bear, author of more than twenty-five books that have been
translated into seventeen languages, has won science fiction's
highest honors and is considered the natural heir to Arthur C.
Clarke. The recipient of two Hugos and four Nebulas for his
fiction, he has been called "the best working writer of hard
science fiction" byThe Science Fiction Encyclopedia. Many of his
novels, such asDarwin's Radio, are considered to be this
generations' classics. Bear is married to Astrid Anderson, daughter
of science fiction great Poul Anderson, and they are the parents of
two children, Erik and Alexandria. His recent thriller novel,
Quantico, was published in 2007 and the sequel, Mariposa, followed
in 2009. He has since published a new, epic science fiction novel,
City at the End of Timeand a generation starship novel, Hull Zero
Three."
