Millennia ago the Five Galaxies decreed the planet Jijo off limits. But in the last thousand years six races have begun resettling Jijo, embracing a pre-industrial life to hide their existence from the Galactics. Overcoming their differences, the Six have built a society based on mutual tolerance for one another and respect for the planet they live on. But that has all changed with an event the Six have feared for hundreds of years: the arrival of an outside ship. David Brin has returned to his popular Uplift universe in this, the first book of a new trilogy

Weaving an epic of complex dimensions, David Brin plaits initially divergent story lines, all set in the year 2038, into an outstandingly satisfying novel. At the center is a type of mystery: after a failed murder attempt, a group of people try to save the victim, recover the murder weapon, identify the guilty party and fend off other assassins, all the while being led through n+1 plot twists — each with a sense of overhanging doom, because the intended victim is Gaea, Earth herself. The struggle to save the planet gives Brin the occasion to recap recent global events: a world war fought to wrest all caches of secret information from the grip of an elite few; a series of ecological disasters brought about by environmental abuse; and the effects of a universal interactive data network on beginning to turn the world into a true global village. Fully dimensional and engaging characters with plausible motivations bring drama to these scenarios. Brin’s exciting prose style will probably make this a Hugo nominee, and will certainly keep readers turning pages

Esta es la historia de una gran mentira que llega a convertirse en una importante verdad. La historia de un hombre que llega a ser una leyenda. Todo empieza en una época futura, próxima a la que estamos viviendo, en los oscuros días siguientes a una limitada pero devastadora guerra en los que un puñado de hombres y mujeres sólo cuentan con enfermedad y hambre, miedo y brutalidad en su lucha para sobrevivir. Gordon Krantz es uno de esos hombres, un narrador itinerante, una especie de juglar, que vive de relatar las obras de los clásicos en los pueblos del noroeste. Una noche, Gordon se apropia de la chaqueta y la bolsa de un cartero, fallecido tiempo atrás, para protegerse del frío. Cuando, tras esto, llega a un pueblo, se da cuenta de que el viejo uniforme es como un símbolo de esperanza en la vuelta de una época que se fue… Este libro es un fix-up compuesto por dos novelas cortas que se publicaron originalmente en 1982 y 1984 y que constituyen sus dos primeras partes. Las otras dos fueron expresamente escritas para formar la novela completa publicada por Bantam en 1985

“Cualquier tecnología suficientemente avanzada es vista como magia”. La frase, a menudo atribuida a Arthur C. Clarke, se hace realidad en esta amena y divertida novela de David Brin. Dennis Nuel, profesor universitario de física, es transportado a un mundo alternativo donde el segundo principio de la termodinámica está invertido y los objetos mejoran con su uso en lugar de deteriorarse. Inevitablemente, Dennis recibe en ese mundo dotado de una organización feudal la consideración de mago. Deberá intervenir en innumerables aventuras y participar en viajes sorprendentes donde encontrará a una rubia princesa y deberá enfrentarse a un inteligente señor de la guerra y a los habituales villanos envidiosos. Todo ello en un mundo dotado de tecnología de pacotilla. Una idea brillante servida con una técnica narrativa que recuerda explícita y voluntariamente la ciencia ficción de los años cuarenta y cincuenta. Una viaje alucinante y alucinado por un mundo anómalo donde las leyes de la física son distintas

Billions of planets may be ripe for life, even intelligence. So where is Everybody? Do civilizations make the same fatal mistakes, over and over? Might we be the first to cross the mine-field, evading every trap to learn the secret of Existence? Astronaut Gerald Livingstone grabs a crystal lump of floating space debris. Little does he suspect it's an alien artifact, sent across the vast, interstellar gulf, bearing a message. "Join us!" – it proclaims. What does the enticing invitation mean? To enroll in a great federation of free races? Only then, what of rumors that this starry messenger may not be the first? Have other crystals fallen from the sky, across 9,000 years? Some have offered welcome. Others… a warning! This masterwork of science fiction combines hard-science speculation and fast-paced action with the deeply thoughtful ideas and haunting imagery that David Brin (best-selling author of Earth and The Postman) is known for in more than twenty languages

This book is an anthology of original stories inspired by science and scientists. The authors—some of the best and most decorated in the field—each visited Microsoft Research and met with top researchers in areas such as machine learning, computer vision, speech recognition, programming languages, and operating systems. They were given a unique opportunity to see new technologies under development and understand how researchers think and work. The stories that came out of this process are the kind of science fiction that excited me as boy. They draw upon, highlight, and extrapolate current science. A number of them put scientists and engineers front and center in the narrative

Dentro de cincuenta años, las nuevas copiadoras-horno permitirán hacer copias perecederas de las personas. Esas copias, los llamados “ídem”, la gente de barro, tienen una vida prevista de un día, carecen de derechos legales o sociales, y son de diverso color según su función. Se les encargan las ocupaciones menos interesantes o las más peligrosas, todas las que rechazan los seres humanos verdaderos. Al final de su existencia, si es posible, los ídem “descargan” en su personaje original, el arquetipo o “archi”, las memorias recopiladas de ese día. Gente de barro narra las peripecias del detective Albert Morris y sus múltiples duplicados de barro en esa nueva sociedad. En el idemburgo se están haciendo copias pirata de una famosa cortesana, Gineen Wammaker, y Morris debe impedirlo. Un trabajo que no parece excesivamente difícil, pero que le llevará a descubrir una intrincada red de conspiraciones en en esa sociedad del futuro donde los ídem carecen de derechos y de todo tipo de consideración. David Brin, galardonado ya con diversos premios Nebula y Hugo, utiliza una narración detectivesca, del tipo hard-boiled, para mostrar las complejidades de una sociedad en la que existe una curiosa versión de los “replicantes” del Blade Runner cinematográfico. Novela finalista del premio Hugo 2003. Novela finalista del premio Arthur C. Clarke 2003

Hugo and Nebula award-winning author David Brin is one of the most eloquent, imaginative voices in science fiction. Now he returns with a new novel rich in texture, universal in theme, monumental in scope—pushing the genre to new heights. Young Maia is fast approaching a turning point in her life. As a half-caste var, she must leave the clan home of her privileged half sisters and seek her fortune in the world. With her twin sister, Leie, she searches the docks of Port Sanger for an apprenticeship aboard the vessels that sail the trade routes of the Stratoin oceans. On her far-reaching, perilous journey of discovery, Maia will endure hardship and hunger, imprisonment and loneliness, bloody battles with pirates and separation from her twin. And along the way, she will meet a traveler who has come an unimaginable distance—and who threatens the delicate balance of the Stratoins’ carefully maintained, perfect society… Both exciting and insightful, Glory Season is a major novel, a transcendent saga of the human spirit

For the fugitive settlers of Jijo, it is truly the beginning of the end. As starships fill the skies, the threat of genocide hangs over the planet that once peacefully sheltered six bands of sapient beings. Now the human settlers of Jijo and their alien neighbors must make heroic-and terrifying-choices. A scientist must rally believers for a cause he never shared. And four youngsters find that what started as a simple adventure-imitating exploits in Earthling books by Verne and Twain-leads them to the dark abyss of mystery. Meanwhile, the Streaker, with her fugitive dolphin crew, arrives at last on Jijo in a desperate search for refuge. Yet what the crew finds instead is a secret hidden since the galaxies first spawned intelligence-a secret that could mean salvation for the planet and its inhabitants…or their ultimate annihilation

Just about everyone’s had a day when they’ve wished it were possible to send an alternate self to take care of unpleasant or tedious errands while the real self takes it easy. In Kiln People, David Brin’s sci-fi-meets-noir novel, this wish has come true. In Brin’s imagined future, folks are able to make inexpensive, disposable clay copies of themselves. These golems or “dittos” live for a single day to serve their creator, who can then choose whether or not to “inload” the memories of the ditto’s brief life. But private investigator Albert Morris gets more than he, or his “ditective” copies, bargain for when he signs on to help solve the mysterious disappearance of Universal Kilns’ co-founder Yasil Mahara

Sur Stratos, les femmes se reproduisent l'hiver par clonage. En été, les hommes entrent en rut et il faut les enfermer dans les Sanctuaires. Mais quelques-uns échappent à la police sexuelle et s'accouplent, proti pudor ! avec les femmes. Les « vars » qui naissent de ces unions sont élevés jusqu'à la puberté puis chassés du clan ; à eux d'en fonder un autre, s'ils peuvent. Maia et Leie, sa soeur jumelle, se voient ainsi, très jeunes, réduites à explorer ce monde pastoral et le trouvent plutôt compliqué. Il y a des radicales qui militent pour les droits des hommes ; des Perkinites qui au contraire, pour les éliminer, proposent la parthénogénèse ; et même un visiteur venu des étoiles pour proposer à Stratos de réintégrer le Phylum. Quoi, il y aurait eu sécession ? Pourquoi tous ces mystères : la Porte à Enigmes, le Mur d'Images, le Grand Modeleur ? Et comment faire bouger les choses ?

Ogni 76 anni ritorna uno dei più affascinanti e misteriosi visitatori che l’umanità ricordi: la Cometa di Halley. Il suo passaggio più recente è ancora fresco nella memoria, ma questo straordinario romanzo ci parla del prossimo appuntamento, e della spedizione di un gruppo di scienziati su Halley, non solo per scoprirne i misteri, ma per trasformarla in un luogo adatto alla vita. Tra meraviglie tecnologiche e sforzi sovrumani di adattamento, i segreti sepolti nel cuore della cometa (tutt’altro che priva di forme di vita) trasformano un immane progetto di colonizzazione in una spietata lotta per la sopravvivenza. Tuttavia, le minacce non vengono solo da un ambiente irriducibile, ma anche dagli stessi membri della spedizione, un complesso microcosmo che riproduce tensioni, conflitti e pregiudizi che hanno portato la Terra sull’orlo della catastrofe; ma soprattutto c’è il drammatico confronto tra due “forme” umane, quella naturale degli Orthos, e quella manipolata geneticamente dei Perceli. Uno sfondo da cui emergono tre grandi protagonisti, dai quali dipende il futuro della missione: Carl Osborn, Saul Lintz e, soprattutto, Virginia Kaninamanu Herbert, impegnata ad esplorare le frontiere fra l’intelligenza umana e quella artificiale. E il lungo viaggio della cometa nelle profondità dello spazio procede fra eventi memorabili e tremende avversità, in un alternarsi di trionfi e delusioni. Esperienze però che ogni volta lasciano appena intuire le incredibili prospettive che ancora attendono la colonia di Halley. Un grandioso affresco, che ha pochi eguali per ricchezza d’idee ed efficacia narrativa, dove si ritrovano tutti i più grandi temi della fantascienza

An odyssey of discovery, from a shattered society through the solar system with a handful of men and women who ride a cold, hurtling ball of ice to the shaky promise of a distant, unknowable future. The novel tells the story of an expedition beginning in the year 2061 to capture Comet Halley into a short period orbit so that its resources can be mined. The discovery of life on the comet and the subsequent survival struggle against the indigenous lifeforms and the illnesses and infections they cause leads to a breakdown of the expedition crew and the creation of factions based around political beliefs, nationality and genetic differences between the “percells”—genetically enhanced humans and the “orthos”—unmodified humans. As well as the fighting between these factions, Earth rejects the mission due to fear of contamination from the halleyform life and attempts to destroy the comet and those living upon it. Eventually the mission crew on Halley are forced to accept that they can never return to earth and create a new biosphere within the comet's core and in some cases evolve into symbiotic organisms with the halleyform life

Gordon Krantz survived the Doomwar only to spend years crossing a post-apocalypse United States looking for something or someone he could believe in again. Ironically, when he's inadvertently forced to assume the made-up role of a “Restored United States” postal inspector, he becomes the very thing he's been seeking: a symbol of hope and rebirth for a desperate nation. Gordon goes through the motions of establishing a new postal route in the Pacific Northwest, uniting secluded towns and enclaves that are starved for communication with the rest of the world. And even though inside he feels like a fraud, eventually he will have to stand up for the new society he's helping to build or see it destroyed by fanatic survivalists

Billions of years ago, an alien race known as the Progenitors began the genetically engineered techniques by which non-intelligent creatures are given intelligence by one of the higher races in the galaxy. Once “Uplifted”, these creature must serve their patron race before they, in turn, can Uplift other races. Human intelligence, which developed by itself (and brought about the Uplifting of chimpanzees and dolphins), is an affront to the aliens who plan an attack, threatening a human experiment aimed at producing the next Uplift

La joven Maia, una descastada nacida en verano, debe abandonar el clan de sus privilegiadas medio hermanas clones nacidas en invierno. Su difícil y peligroso viaje iniciático arranca en los muelles de Puerto Sanger y prosigue a bordo de uno de los barcos tripulados por los escasos hombres (menos de un veinte por ciento) que forman la población de Stratos, un mundo creado por y para las mujeres. Sólo el difícil y lejano éxito le permitirá ser la fundadora de un nuevo clan. Las manipulaciones genéticas de la Madre Fundadora Lysos han creado en Stratos un mundo nuevo y distinto, dominado por mujeres que se reproducen por clonación. Una nueva opción sociopolítica, tecnológica, ecológica y, sobre todo, en el ámbito de la relación entre ambos sexos. En la senda de la literatura que denuncia las relaciones entre los sexos o propone establecer nuevos vínculos, Tiempos de gloria se une a obras ya clasicas como La mano izquierda de la oscuridad de Ursula K. Le Guin

Ewolucja we wszechświecie powieści Brina nie jest tylko siłą naturalną — rozwinięte gatunki istot inteligentnych przyspieszają rozwój innych, „niższych” ras w ramach galaktycznego porządku wspomagania. Wiąże się z tym także system powiernictwa planet — Ziemianie otrzymali Garth w celu przyspieszenia odbudowy jego zniszczonego ekosystemu. Jednak ptasiopodobni Gubru szykują inwazję na Garth. Chcą nie tylko przejąć planetę, ale także wykorzystać ją w szantażu, mającym na celu ujawnienie miejsca stacjonowania odkrytej przez ziemski statek „Streaker” kosmicznej floty starożytnej rasy. Rozpoczęta wojna toczy się nie tylko na powierzchni Garth, gdzie pozbawione ludzkich zwierzchników neoszympansy organizują partyzantkę, ale i na poziomie galaktycznego systemu wspomagania, w ramach którego Ziemianie walczą o swoje prawo do planety
