Book: Brightness Reef

David Brin
On the distant planet of Jijo, six exiled races live side by side. Only ancient relices from their home planets, fragments of half-forgotten stories and the crumbling ruins of the mysterious and god-like Buyur remind the dispossessed of a more noble past, when they were full citizens of the Five Galazies. The races of Jijo, it seems, have been forgotten, along with whatever crimes they committed. But for how long?
It is at the time of th Gathering, the council of the sages, when the spacecraft is first spotted.
For some, it offers a new hope.
For others, it heralds a time of reckoning.
BRIGHTNESS REEF is the compelling story of a world threatened by its past and fighting for its future. With a gallery of extraordinary characters, and a wealth of thought-provoking ideas, it is a novel fuelled by the spirit of adventure and discovery. BRIGHTNESS REEF is David Brin at his very best.
