Overview

Now in trade paperback, all three books of the epic science fiction Faded Sun trilogy--Kesrith, Shon'jir, and Kutath--collected in one volume.

They were the mri--tall, secretive, bound by honor and the rigid dictates of their society. For aeons this golden-skinned, golden-eyed race had provided the universe mercenary soldiers of almost unimaginable ability.

But now the mri have faced an enemy unlike any other--an enemy whose only way of war is widespread destruction. These "humans" are mass fighters, creatures of the herb, and the mri have been slaughtered like animals. Now, in the aftermath of war, the mri face extinction.

It will be up to three individuals to save whatever remains of this devastated race: a warrior--one of the last survivors of his kind; a priestess of this honorable people; and a lone human--a man sworn to aid the enemy of his own kind. Can they retrace the galaxy-wide path of this nomadic race back through millennia to reclaim the ancient world that first gave them life?

  • Gorgeous and inventive Science Fiction

    Jessie H. - 2 years 9 months ago

    This trilogy is Cherryh stretching her impressive imagination -- resulting in a complex alien society that feels real and relatable while remaining distinctly not human, and which explores themes of assimilation and loyalty, courage, and determination. The worlds they travel feel solid -- you can feel the sullen heat of a dying sun and the far, far stretch of cold space. The writing is beautifully spare, a real pleasure to read. I highly recommend it.
