Novel. Published: A Tor Book, published by Tom Doherty Associates, Inc., June 1997. Setting: Avalon. I.U.C.: A. 3. ISBN: 0-312-85122-7. Summary: Destiny is a human colony world seeded by a single slowboat from Earth, the Argos, which arrived in the Apollo star system approximately three-hundred years before the story opens.
In the first tumultuous years on Destiny, two events changed forever the lives and futures of these colonists: the desertion of the Argos, an event that severed all hope of ever contacting Earth, and the disappearance of its fusion-powered landing craft, the Cavorite.
