Venus of Dreams,
Venus of Shadows, and
Child of Venus-further establish the Nebula and Locus Award-winning author of
The Shore of Women as "one of the genre's best writers" (
The Washington Post).
The Venus Project-making the planet's atmosphere habitable for humans-spans centuries and determines the fate of multiple generations.

With all work on Venus abruptly halted, Mahala now faces the most momentous decision of her young life. She can remain behind on the unfinished planet, or leave everything she's ever known and loved to pursue her destiny-and humankind's-to the far reaches of the universe ...
