About this product

Product Information

Hugo and Nebula award-winning author David Brin is one of the most eloquent, imaginative voices in science fiction. Now he returns with a new novel rich in texture, universal in theme, monumental in scope--pushing the genre to new heights. Young Maia is fast approaching a turning point in her life. As a half-caste var, she must leave the clan home of her privileged half sisters and seek her fortune in the world. With her twin sister, Leie, she searches the docks of Port Sanger for an apprenticeship aboard the vessels that sail the trade routes of the Stratoin oceans. On her far-reaching, perilous journey of discovery, Maia will endure hardship and hunger, imprisonment and loneliness, bloody battles with pirates and separation from her twin. And along the way, she will meet a traveler who has come an unimaginable distance--and who threatens the delicate balance of the Stratoins' carefully maintained, perfect society.... Both exciting and insightful, Glory Season is a major novel, a transcendent saga of the human spirit.

  • A Great Read

    I have been reading his books for years. This is a stand alone novels about a world that has been settled by humans. This world the humans have been alter so they are two types of reproduction. Women will produce clones of themselves or children that are normal and different. The trick that each gender is only interested in sex for different halves of the year. A set of twin sisters named have characters in a novel set out to find themselves a place in the world. The goal of each unique female child is to start their own family of clones. This is not an easy task. This is an interesting idea for "utopia" society. The woman have the most of the power in this world. Will the girls from a place in the world? Will they have future generations? There are not many stories with this plot line.
