Exultant Summary

Exultant: Destiny's Children Book 2 by Stephen Baxter

Set 25,000 years from now, EXULTANT takes mankind into a millenial war for the control of the galaxy itself. A war against the unknowable, utterly alien Xeelee. Now the war has reached the galaxy's hot core, the Xeelee stronghold and, impossibly, it seems that a final victory may be at hand. It is a victory that will rely on mankind's latest warriors. In a war for survival you are expected to live bravely and die young for the good of the greater. A massive selective breeding campaign has led to the best solution - child soldiers. But the Xeelee predate man by millions of years and they will not be easily beaten. EXULTANT is an epic dark novel of a savage future. It is at once a warning about the dangers of winning whatever the cost and a hugely impressive piece of SF.

Exultant Reviews

"Absurdly ambitious, technically brilliant and downright exciting" -- Jonathan Wright SFX "Warfare and human evolution as they have rarely been depicted. Baxter's writing and characters are vivid, and the focus on humanity's possible development remains the saga's core theme. Fascinating serious SF" -- Brigid Cherry DREAMWATCH "Baxter once again offers up stunning cutting edge physics" -- Liz Sourbut NEW SCIENTIST
