From the front flap: Nancy Kress, award winning author of the Sleepless trilogy, one of the monuments of SF of the last decade, has embarked on a new major work. Last year she published Probability Moon, and Locus said: "Kress's Sleepless trilogy proved that she was a serious writer, worthy of considered attention. Probability Moon only emphasizes that... it is a good novel, and good science fiction." Now in the sequel, Probability Sun, Kress returns to the future in which the human race is losing an interstellar war against the mysterious alien Fallers. A shipload of scientists from Earth is sent to study the enigmatic artifact discovered on a distant planet, while the military crew of their ship is secretly holding prisoner for study, the only live Faller ever captured. The artifact is not only a powerful weapon, but possibly the key to a lost superscience that the Fallers may have decoded. Or it may be a doomsday machine for everyone, human and alien. This is an intense novel of war and science that will expand Nancy Kress's already large audience.
