The Uplift books are as compulsive reading as anything ever published in the genre' - John Clute, THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SCIENCE FICTIONThe second book in David Brin's second Uplift trilogy is a magnificent addition to one of science fiction's most ambitious and compelling series. The six races had been living in exile on the planet Jijo for two thousand years before they were discovered by the Five Galaxies. Now they are alone again, but they know it is only a reprieve . . . Fleeing across space following an alien attack on Earth, the spaceship Streaker finds itself stranded near an uninhabited planet. Kaa is sent to the surface to investigate. All seems quiet. He doesn't yet know that the planet is Jijo.

The Uplift Series: 'Brin writes space opera with rare panache . . . multi-layered, tightly plotted and excellently written' - SFX 'An exhilarating read that encompasses everything from breathless action to finely drawn moments of quiet intimacy. There is no way we can avoid coming back as many times as Brin wants us to, until his story is done' - LOCUS 'Brilliant . . he weaves the alien textures exquisitely' - NEW SCIENTIST
