A ship of imprisoned dissidents arrives on an extrasolar labor camp and research station known as Kiln, victims of the authoritarian Mandate regime and its insistence on adherence to orthodoxy. Arton is a biologist and finds the native ecology fascinating, even as he learns more about its effects on contaminated humans. A gripping and inventive account of resistance in the face of an authoritarian regime and the power of truth in the face of lies.
CatLass007 I have this author on my radar. He‘s on a list of authors whose books I want to try. Unfortunately there‘s only one book in my local library by him and it‘s the first bookin a trilogy. But this sounds like an excellent book and I can buy it if I want to or not because I don‘t know if I could necessarily afford to. 3w
