Description:
Amnesty may be granted,but the Angel cannot forgive. Two time nominee for the Campbell Award and finalist for the Philip K. Dick Award, Susan R. Matthews continues to blaze a trail through contemporary science fiction with Angel of Destruction. A stand-alone novel within her critically acclaimed "Judiciary" universe, her latest work focuses on Bench officer Garol Vogel and his attempts to make peace with the Langsarik people-the people his own Judiciary drove into a life of piracy. Vogel has offered the disenfranchised Langsariks an amnesty agreement that would ban them from space travel and ensure an end to their pirate raids. But now, raids are being committed in Judiciary space. Raids that leave no survivors. Raids blamed on the Langsarik. And if Vogel cannot find proof to support his belief that the Langsarik are not responsible for the raids, the Judiciary will have no choice but to enforce a harsher punishment-in effect, destroying the Langsarik entirely. "[Matthews] brilliantly uses science fiction's freedom of creation to make a world in which she can explore deep moral conflicts." -The Denver Post "Matthews will stand out in a field dominated (in numbers if not in stature) by mediocre imitators." -Analog
