Sailing Bright Eternity
The final volume in the Nebula Award–winning author's classic hard SF series—"as at the end of any great symphony, one can only stand and applaud" ( Asimov's Science Fiction ).
Humanity's final chapter has begun, and three men hold the key to survival. As the fierce, artificially intelligent mechs pursue their savage and unstoppable destruction of the human race, it soon becomes apparent that three men—three generations in a family of voyagers—are their targets.
Toby Bishop, his father Kileen, and his long-dead grandfather each carry a piece of the lethal secret that can destroy their relentless pursuers. To make matters worse, they have no idea they possess the only weapon that can save humanity.
