Description

 							Michael Flynn has written the best SF in the tradition of Robert A. Heinlein of the last decade. His major work
was the Firestar sequence, a four-book future history. "As Robert A. Heinlein did and all too few have done since,
Michael Flynn writes about the near future as if he'd been there and was bringing back reports of what he'd seen," said
Harry Turtledove. Now, in this sweeping standalone epic of the spaceways, Flynn grows again in stature, with an SF novel
worthy of the master himself. Indeed, if Heinlein's famous character, the space-faring poet Rhysling, had ever written a
novel, this would be it.
  
  This is a story of the glory that was. In the days of the great sailing ships in
the mid-21st century, when magnetic sails drew cargo and passengers alike to every corner of the Solar System, sailors
had the highest status of all spacemen, and the crew of the luxury liner The River of Stars, the highest among all
sailors.
  
  But development of the Farnsworth fusion drive doomed the sailing ships and now The River of
Stars is the last of its kind, retrofitted with engines, her mast vestigial, her sails unraised for years. An ungainly
hybrid, she operates in the late years of the century as a mere tramp freighter among the outer planets, and her crew is
a motley group of misfits. Stepan Gorgas is the escapist executive officer who becomes captain. Ramakrishnan Bhatterji
is the chief engineer who disdains him. Eugenie Satterwaithe, once a captain herself, is third officer and, for form's
sake, sailing master.
  
  When an unlikely and catastrophic engine failure strikes The River, Bhatterji is
confident he can effect repairs with heroic engineering, but Satterwaithe and the other sailors among the crew plot to
save her with a glorious last gasp for the old ways, mesmerized by a vision of arriving at Jupiter proudly under sail.
The story of their doom has the power, the poetry, and the inevitability of a Greek tragedy. This is a great science
fiction novel, Flynn's best yet.
