"The closest thing the science fiction world now has to Robert A. Heinlein." -- SFRevu "Steele has been progressively widening the screen throughout this series, and with Hex he bumps the aspect ratio up to IMAX level and sits us in a front-row seat." -- Locus "Coyote has become one of SF's beloved other worlds...Interesting and well thought out; the reward is worth the trip." -- Analog, "The closest thing the science fiction world now has to Robert A.

Two-time Hugo Award winner Allen Steele expands the universe of his Coyote saga with the story of Hex, a habitat the size of an entire solar system that could be a utopia--or nothing but a cosmic mirage... The danui, a reclusive arachnid species, have avoided contact with the Coyote Federation--until now. Initiating trade negotiations, they offer only information: the coordinates for an unoccupied world suitable for human life--a massive sphere composed of billions of hexagons. But when the Federation's recon mission goes terribly wrong, the humans realize how little they know about their new partners...
