Glory's War

She is a Goldenwing and her name is Glory. She was built in orbit around the Moon, one thousand seven hundred of Earth's years ago. She is still one of the most beautiful artifacts ever made by Man.

"Superbly written, Glory is a first-rate novel, with a bevy of wonderful characters and a fascinating ship society...."--Starlog "A strong, well-crafted tale inhabited by intriguing characters (not least, the ship's cat)." -- Roger Zelazny "Realistic, far future SF with a cutting edge." -- Gene Wolfe "Glory is unabashed space opera, a wondrous booming tale written large across the heavens. That is what science fiction is all about. Glory soars, as majestic and dazzling as its backdrop. One can almost crawl in the futuristic rigging, spread one's arms and embrace the stars."--Tampa Tribune
