Fantastyka i SciFi
Six million years ago, at the very dawn of the starfaring era, Abigail Gentian fractured herself into a thousand male and female clones: the shatterlings. Sent out into the galaxy, these shatterlings have stood aloof as they document the rise and fall of countless human empires. They meet every 200,000 years to exchange news and memories of their travels with their siblings.
Not only are Campion and Purslane late for their thirty-second reunion but they have also brought along an amnesiac golden robot for a guest. But the wayward shatterlings get more than the scolding they expect: they face the discovery that someone has a very serious grudge against the Gentian line, and there is a very real possibility of traitors in their midst. The surviving shatterlings have to dodge exotic weapons while they regroup to try to solve the mystery of who is persecuting them and why-before their ancient line is wiped out of existence forever.

After a rather slow start, the story evolves into a sci-fi juggernaut. Reynolds manages to basically stay within the realms of know science while juggling the most outlandish and extreme science fiction concepts from stardams, to post humans. This novel is however much more than just frivolous space engineering porn - being a nerd feast it manages to tell a real story about relatable characters driven by real emotions. It is difficult to break away from the book as the plot thickens.
