Аннотация

A triumph of the New Space Opera: fast, complicated, wonder-filled!
Hugo Award finalist and Robert A. Heinlein Award–winning SF writer Michael
Flynn now turns to space opera with stunningly successful results. Full of rich
echoes of space opera classics from Doc Smith to Cordwainer Smith, The
January Dancer tells the fateful story of an ancient pre-human artifact of
great power, and the people who found it.
Starting with Captain Amos
January, who quickly loses it, and then the others who fought, schemed, and
killed to get it, we travel around the complex, decadent, brawling, mongrelized
interstellar human civilization the artifact might save or destroy. Collectors
want the Dancer; pirates take it, rulers crave it, and they’ll all kill if
necessary to get it. This is a thrilling yarn of love, revolution, music, and
mystery, and it ends, as all great stories do, with shock and a
beginning.
