Deception Well by Linda Nagata6/11/2023 The Wild existed in beautiful and ruthless perfection-until the people came. Better, safer, to encounter this entity from a position of strength, armed with all the knowledge and power contained within the needle. He is sure that when the fleet enters Tanjiri system, he will meet this maker of worlds-with the lives of everyone he loves at stake. Perhaps the entity is gone? But Urban doesnt believe that. No one, nothing, has answered Dragons hails. An entity-one greater even than Lezuri-must have made that moon. Farther in, an Earthlike world orbits in the company of a miraculous living moon created less than 4,000 years ago. The belt of ruins lies ahead: a chaos of remnant megastructures from a fallen civilization. Now Dragon and its fleet of outriders has reached the periphery of Tanjiri system. Urban has only to discover the trick of opening it, to gain that knowledge for himself-but the needle remains an enigma. All Lezuris knowledge lies locked within that needle. A needle, ultra-thin and twelve centimeters long, with a silvery surface that slices light into rainbow glints. Urban still possesses the strange gift-the impossible puzzle-Lezuri gave him that day. You are not ready to encounter what exists there." Needle by Linda Nagata - New! Inverted Frontier, Book 3
