The generation ship Jacob's Ladder has barely survived cataclysms from without and within. Now, riding the shock wave of a nova blast toward an uncertain destiny, the damaged ship remains a war zone. Even as Perceval, the new captain, struggles to come to terms with the traumas of her recent past, the remnants of rebellion aboard the ship threaten the crew's survival.

More chase scenes submitted by JLW on August 17, 2013, 9:15am This could have been titled "More chase scenes for your reading pleasure". Typical of the second book in the series, answered some questions, raised some more, makes you want to read the final chapter right away. Elizabeth Bear obviously loves words and to write interesting turns of phrase. The world she creates is fascinating, but totally conceivable. A worthy read.
