66 years ago, the people of Burdania spilt into two - those determined to colonize other worlds, and those determined to stay. But the colonists, in their leaving, accidentally and profoundly devastate their home world. Now a small group of people return, led by a man brought up amongst aliens.

Octavo, boards. First edition. "Though no specific mention is made of Homo sapiens, LEGACIES (1995) is tonally akin to SF novels, mostly of an earlier generation, which are set during or after the great interregnum of long night that succeeds the first attempts of our species to inhabit the larger universe, a period during which individual human cultures, having lost all contact with their origins, evolve autonomously. In this case the "human" society of the planet Burdania has turned away from space exploration, with the exception of a cadre of 'Explorers' who build an illicit space drive whose side-effects shatter the home culture. Decades after this disaster, the Explorers have settled upon another planet, discovering sentient life there. With an Anthropological focus much updated from (but evocative of) the work of Chad Oliver, the novel traces the growing human understanding of the newly discovered species, while simultaneously mounting an expedition back to their ruined-Earth home planet. Complex, autumnal lessons are conveyed." - SFE (online). The author's first novel. Hartwell, 200 Significant SF Books by Women, 1984-2001. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#116234).
