Book Description
======
In Jack CampbellÆs New York Times bestselling Lost Fleet series, CampbellÆs
hero Captain Black Jack Geary explores the furthest reaches of space.
Here, Campbell explores what kinds of problems mankind might face as
our horizons expand. The third in a series of collections of CampbellÆs
short stories includes some of CampbellÆs favorite stories, and some
of his earliest. A brand new authorÆs note accompanies each story.
ôLady Be Goodö is one of CampbellÆs most popular stories, winner of
Analog MagazineÆs ôAnLabö reader poll for Best Short Story and cited
in Gardner Dozoisæ YearÆs Best SF. The Lady Be Good is an old ship,
running obscure routes, not all on the right side of the law, with her
loyal first officer Kilcannon and reclusive captain. When Kilcannon
decides to rescue the survivors of an attack on a Vestral Company ship,
a mysterious new passenger thanks him by asking difficult questions
about the Lady, with unexpected answers.
In ôKyrie Eleison,ö the Verio shipwrecked centuries ago on an out-of-the-way
planet, and the descendants of the shipÆs survivors have gotten along
as well as they can by following the orders that were passed on to them.
But those orders werenÆt intended to govern life on the planetÆs surface,
and when the Bellegrange arrives on a rescue mission, her captain will
have to reckon with the unexpected social order on the planet.
In ôDo No Harmö, a ship is so technologically advanced that it can repair
itself–but turning over the keys might not be the best idea. And in
ôDown the Rabbit Hole,ö a series of failed attempts at faster-than-light
travel lead to a novel approach: sending an untested Naval captain out
in a space ship to see if he can figure out whatÆs gone wrong.
With eleven stories in all, AD ASTRA is the most multi-faceted introduction
to the short fiction of Jack Campbell(John G. Hemry), and an essential
complement to his bestselling book-length work.
