Descriere magazin:
Mesmerizing new sci-fi from the author of The Deed of Paksenarrion. Ofelia, the only remaining settler on a planet long since abandoned by its initial human colony, is at first fearful when a new group of settlers arrives. But the appearance of stone-age aliens whom no one knew existed thrusts Ofelia into another role altogether. Finalist for the Hugo Award - Ofelia--tough, kind, wise and unwise, fond of food, tired of foolish people--is one of the most probable heroines science fiction has ever known.--Ursula K. Le Guin For forty years, Colony 3245.12 has been Ofelia\'s home. On this planet far away in space and time from the world of her youth, she has lived and loved, weathered the death of her husband, raised her one surviving child, lovingly tended her garden, and grown placidly old. And it is here that she fully expects to finish out her days--until the shifting corporate fortunes of the Sims Bancorp Company dictates that Colony 3245.12 is to be disbanded, its residents shipped off, deep in cryo-sleep, to somewhere new and strange and not of their choosing. But while her fellow colonists grudgingly anticipate a difficult readjustment on some distant world, Ofelia savors the promise of a golden opportunity. Not starting over in the hurly-burly of a new community . . . but closing out her life in blissful solitude, in the place she has no intention of leaving. A population of one. With everything she needs to sustain her, and her independent spirit to buoy her, Ofelia actually does start life over-for the first time on her own terms: free of the demands, the judgments, and the petty tyrannies of others. But when a reconnaissance ship returns to her idyllic domain, and its crew is mysteriously slaughtered, Ofelia realizes she is not the sole inhabitant of her paradise after all. And, when the inevitable time of first contact finally arrives, she will find her life changed yet again--in ways she could never have imagined. . . . Pure satisfaction from cover to cover. --Anne McCaffrey
