To all those who still believe
that without imagination we are nothing,
and without bold adventures and risks
nothing great of permanence is attainable.
Most people believed that they would eventually go to heaven, even the ones whom everybody else knew would never make it.

For now - to the stars!

Quotes

Culture masked truth - but there could be only one truth.
Any system that makes a man fear knowledge is an evil system.

RESERVATIONS


Long ago, legend had it, the machines revelled, wiping out most of humanity and exiling the survivors in widely scattered reservations where they lived according to their ancient cultures.  Master System ruled unchallenged, since the key to breaking its control - five microships disguised as gold rings - was long forgotten.  And Master System was careful to keep it that way.

The an Amerindian called Hawks stumbled across secret information about the five gold rings and their purpose.  And on the other side of the world, a Chinese girl genius dared to interfere with a computer system to avoid and unhappy future as a humble and obedient Oriental wife.

Suddenly Master System was after them both - and it looked as if their only hope lay in finding the rings themselves...

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
