Synopsis of Coyote Rising: A Novel of Interstellar Revolution

Hugo Award-winning Author Allen Steele's critically acclaimed Coyote was a dramatic new departure-"a terrific, break-out Book" (Robert J. Sawyer) of "classic science-fiction" (Orlando Sentinel). But if Coyote was a grand novel of interstellar exploration, then Coyote Rising is the bold next step-a novel of interstellar revolution.

The crew of the hijacked starship Alabama fled their colony on Coyote after more colonists arrived-along with a new, repressive government and all of Earth's social ills. Now, the iron-fisted colonial governor is building a bridge to exploit the virgin territory where the Alabama's crew are believed to have resettled.

But a movement is underway to reclaim Coyote for those who truly love freedom-a full-scale rebellion in which the men and women on both sides of the fight will learn the true price of liberty.

Reviews of Coyote Rising: A Novel of Interstellar Revolution

50%

Though the Book starts out grimly, with as many tales of loss as redemption, it finds its footing soon enough and sweeps you along in this story of colonial revolt. -- Ernest Lilley, SFRevu

Allen Steele is the successor to Robert Heinlein. -- Harriet Klausner, ParaNormal Romance Reviews

The trouble is that the gravity fields of the stories are so strong that they slow the novel down, and it never achieves escape velocity. -- Paul Witcover, Scifi.com

Just as in the first Book, Steele combines the adventures of discovery with the psychology of the human dynamic to create a work that should appeal to both science fiction aficionados and general readers. -- Mark Graham, Rocky Mountain News
