Description

Circling the Sun, under the caverns of Mercury, Expedition Sundiver prepares for the most momentous voyage in our history. A journey into the boiling inferno of the sun, to seek our destiny in the cosmic order of life.

For in a universe in which no species can reach sentience without being 'uplifted' by a patron race, it seems that only mankind has reached for the stars unaided. And now, the greatest mystery of all may be explained...

This omnibus contains the first three novels of David Brin's classic science fiction Uplift series: SUNDIVER, STARTIDE RISING and THE UPLIFT WAR.

Reviews

His best stories surge forward with tremendous energy, each one avid to find some extrapolated consequence of its premise which will startle and challenge the reader * INTERZONE *
The Uplift books are as compulsive reading as anything ever published in the genre * THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SCIENCE FICTION *
Brin's storytelling abilites come to the fore in THE UPLIFT WAR. He handles a large cast extremely well, and the course of the war is laid out to make a thrilling, nail-biting storyline that moves at neckbreak speed * VECTOR *
