Praise for The Eternity Artifact "A glorious space opera set in a distant future when humans spread to the stars and splintered into a number of subsidiary civilizations. . . .Very enjoyable, lots of sense of wonder, and I even liked the characters." -- Chronicle "Captivating far-future tale of life in space, from the author of Flash . . . .Modesitt's prose is lively, and there's enough sense of wonder here to satisfy even the most jaded. . . .A must-read for Modesitt fans, as well as those of Jack McDevitt and Arthur C. Clarke." Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "An intriguing vehicle for exploring interstellar fundamentalism." Entertainment Weekly "As usual, Modesitt's work shines with engrossing characters, terrific plotting, and realistic world-building. This stand-alone novel addresses relevant political and economic issues within the framework of rip-roaring space adventure, making it a must-read for fans of interstellar fiction." Romantic Times BOOKreviews "Modesitt's storytelling and characterization are as good as ever, and his use of four first-person viewpoints is quite effective." -- Booklist "Superior science-fiction adventure writing. The plot moves compellingly, the characters are distinct and idenitifiable."

A powerful novel on a sweeping, mysterious stage." --Dave Drake, author of The Way to Glory "L. E. Modesitt is one of those special authors who brings a great deal to his work: a love of words, an understanding of people and cultures, and an interest in great stories and ideas.

Synopsis
Moe than 5,000 years in the future, orbital shuttle pilot Jiendra Chang, artist Chendor Barna, and history professor Liam Fitzhugh are recruited to unravel a frozen planet's secrets, but there are forces that will stop at nothing to prevent them, even if it means interstellar war., 5,000 years in the future, humankind has spread across thousands of worlds, and more than a dozen different governments exist in an uneasy truce. But human beings have found no signs of other life anywhere approaching human intelligence. This changes when scientists discover a sunless planet they name Danann, travelling the void just beyond the edge of the Galaxy at such a high speed that it cannot be natural. Its continents and oceans have been sculpted and shaped, with but a single megaplex upon it--close to perfectly preserved--with tens of thousands of near-identical metallic-silver-blue towers set along curved canals. Yet Danann has been abandoned for so long that even the atmosphere has frozen solid. Within a few years Danann will approach an area of singularities that will make exploration and investigation impossible. Orbital shuttle pilot Jiendra Chang, artist Chendor Barna, and history professor Liam Fitzhugh are recruited by the Comity government and its Deep Space Service, along with scores of other experts as part of an unprecedented and unique expedition to unravel Danann's secrets. And there are forces that will stop at nothing to prevent them, even if it means interstellar war. Other Series by L.E.
