Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

This second volume in David Brin's new Uplift trilogy is an epic tale that artfully combines dozens of unique characters and their individual stories. The planet Jijo, which has been settled by six separate races despite a decree that it remain barren for a million years, is about to change. The exploration ship Streaker, on the run since discovering the secrets of a two-billion-year-old derelict fleet, has arrived with virtually the entire universe in pursuit. Overnight the peaceful, technologically backwards Jijoan society erupts into civil war, creating a chaotic tapestry of grief, sorrow, joy, love and, ultimately, hope.


Review

The Uplift Series: 'Brin writes space opera with rare panache . . . multi-layered, tightly plotted and excellently written' - SFX 'An exhilarating read that encompasses everything from breathless action to finely drawn moments of quiet intimacy. There is no way we can avoid coming back as many times as Brin wants us to, until his story is done' - LOCUS 'Brilliant . . he weaves the alien textures exquisitely' - NEW SCIENTIST

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable and thought-provoking Sci-Fi, 25 Mar 1999
By A Customer
I really enjoyed Infinity's Shore. I felt the storyline, with the blend of new characters from Jijo, and the dolphins from the 2nd book of the first Uplift Trilogy, Brightness Reef, really worked well. I obviously don't want to give too much of the plot away, but I can't help mentioning the ingenious analogue computers, or the wheelers - a unique species runing on wheels, designed for artificial habitats.

I thoroughly recommend this book, althoughperhaps not as much as Brightness Reef or the Uplift War by the same author.
