"Distinctive characterizations" in this sci-fi fantasy "contribute to an exciting coming-of-age story with a strong message about the evils of prejudice" ( Booklist). Prisoners of a war they barely remember, Fremont's Children must find a way to survive in a world that abhors their very nature. Or they must discover a way to leave it... Brenda Cooper's Fremont's Children series launches with her award-winning novel The Silver Ship and the Sea. Cooper explores what it means to be so different that others feel they must oppress you. Six genetically enhanced children are stranded on the colony planet Fremont in a war between genetic purists and those that would tinker with the code. Orphaned, the children have few remnants of their heritage other than an old woman who was left for abandoned at the end of the war, and a mysterious silver ship that appears to have no doors. To keep themselves alive, the children must leave the safety of the insular community and brave the beautiful but dangerous wilds of Fremont. Is it an echo of their own natures, or a proving ground of their genetic worth? In this battle of wills and principles, what does the future hold for Fremont's Children? Winner of the Endeavor Award "An engrossing tale of six young outsiders growing up on a colony planet... This is an adventure story... But it is also a story about the relationships between insiders and outsiders... between people who need each other in order to survive." - School Library Journal "Fast-paced and full-bodied , The Silver Ship and the Sea is character-driven hard SF at its best." - The Seattle Times
