Despite her family's concerns, Binti's talent for mathematics and her aptitude with astrolabes make her a prime candidate to undertake this interstellar journey. But everything changes when the jellyfish-like Medusae attack Binti's spaceship, leaving her the only survivor. Now, Binti must fend for herself, alone on a ship full of the beings who murdered her crew, with five days until she reaches her destination. There is more to the history of the Medusaeâand their war with the Khoushâthan first meets the eye. If Binti is to survive this voyage and save the inhabitants of the unsuspecting planet that houses Oomza Uni, it will take all of her knowledge and talents to broker the peace. But even if Binti achieves this remarkable feat, it's not the end of her story. For this lone Himba woman, now bonded with a Medusa and forever changed by this bond, still must find a way to survive and thrive at Oomza University amid swirling interspecies biases. And eventually, she must return home to test the strength of the fragile peace she worked so hard to win. 541 $d 20220310. 650 $a Human-alien encounters $v Fiction. 650 $a Interstellar travel $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Science fiction. 830 $a DAW book collectors. 830 $a DAW book collectors ; $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n91066025 $v no. 1813. 941 $a 2 952 $l CHPB482 $d 20230325010045.0 952 $l AJPE887 $d 20220923010059.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=09E0939E3B0511EDADB189BD42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
