Risking their lives and reputations to escape commandeering by the United States military, the crew of the research starship Starfarer plunges into deep space along the cosmic strings and emerges near Tau Ceti just in time to receive a mysterious message from an alien intelligence. This sequel to Starfarers (Ace, 1989) displays McIntyre at her best, combining a cast of highly individualized characters with a compelling plot to produce top-notch sf adventure.
