Two Top-Selling Sequels to Anne McCaffrey's The Ship Who Sang in One Volume Two novels in one large volume, both set in the same universe as The Ship Who Sang: The Ship Who Searched: Tia, a bright and spunky seven-year old contracted an unknown neural disorder which made her lose control of her body. So she became a shell person¾controlling a spaceship as if it were her body and searching for the origin of the disease that laid her low, so that no other little girl will ever suffer the fate of The Ship Who Searched. PartnerShip: Nancia is a brand new member of the elite Courier Service of the Central Worlds. She's the "brains" of an advanced interstellar ship. The last thing she needed was a cynical "brawn" partner like Forister. But idealistic Nancia and worldly-wise Forister together just might save the galaxy. Neither of them would be satisfied to go through life in a glorified wheelchair; like Helva, The Ship Who Sang, they decided to strap on a spaceship! At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). "Quite entertaining . . . captures the spirit of The Ship Who Sang . . . a single, solid plot. . . ." ¾Locus "Splendidly paced and filled with lively characters . . . [PartnerShip is] excellent entertainment." ¾Rave Reviews "A perfect combination of SF, adventure, and romance, this is sure to please a wide variety of readers." ¾Kliatt "[The Ship Who Searched is] superb . . . Lackey and McCaffrey have created a marvelous love story in an exciting science fictional setting and then topped it all off with an ingeniously spiffy resolution." ¾Rave Reviews
