Hinder Stars, The nr. 1: Alliance Rising (m. Jane S. Fancher) (Cherryh, C.J.)
For years, the stations of the Hinder Stars have lagged behind the great megastations of the Beyond. But new opportunities and fears arise when Alpha station receives news of an incoming ship with no identification. The denizens of Alpha wait anxiously for news about the outsiders, each with their own suspicions about the ship and its origins. Some believe the unidentified ship belongs to Pell station and has come to investigate another massive ship docked at Alpha, The Rights of Man. James Robert Neihart, captain of Finity’s End—a huge faster-than-light ship flown by one of the Merchanter Families—has heard whispers of The Rights of Man and wonders at its design and purpose. Now docked at Alpha, he must convince the crews that there is more to The Rights of Man than meets the eye. Because the reasons behind the creation of The Rights of Man, and its true plans, could change everything—not just for Sol, but for the Hinder Stars and the Beyond itself. Story Locale: Alliance-Union Universe Series Overview: The Hinder Stars explores one of the earliest conflicts in the Alliance-Union universe, a galaxy-spanning saga of political intrigue and corporate sabotage.
