A new planet. A new battle. Same war.

After barely surviving his last tour on Mars, Master Sergeant Michael Venn finds himself back on Earth in enforced isolation. Through a dangerous series of operations he returns to Mars to further his investigation into the Drifters—ancient artifacts suddenly reawakened on the red planet.

But another front in the war leads his team to make the difficult journey to Saturn’s moon Titan. Here, in the cauldron of war, hides new truths about the Drifters, the origin of life in our solar system, and the plans of the supposedly benevolent Gurus, who have been “sponsoring” and supporting humanity in their fight against outside invaders.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

Not for those who prefer their space opera simple-minded, this beautifully written tale where nothing is as it seems will please readers with a well-developed sense of wonder. —Publisher's Weekly (starred review) on Hull Zero Three
Greg Bear is one contemporary master of the old ways, and in Hull Zero Three he gives the generation starship theme - crystallized beautifully by Robert Heinlein in 1941's "Universe —a vigorous makeover....
The heart of the mystery is worthy of Bear in its bravura extrapolations into far-future science and moral ambiguity...a testament of faith both in human beings and in something beyond them, divine or indistinguishable from it, and it seems directed as much toward the world of today, with all its sinful affections and deceits, as it is toward the far future. —Locus on Hull Zero Three
I loved Hull Zero Three - this book reminds me of why I fell in love with science fiction in the first place. Searing questions of humanity, a good old fashioned riddle of a plot, and excellent conceptualization make Hull Zero Three more than worth the effort. —thebooksmugglers.com
Hull Zero Three is a lean, mean, supercharged sense-of-wonder engine. —Alastair Reynolds on Hull Zero Three
Hull Zero Three is a grand adventure of scientific discovery in the tradition of "Orphans of the Sky" and "Rendezvous with Rama —by turns chilling and touching, it poses challenging questions about what it means to be human.
Stuffed with adrenaline-pumping action and mystifying ambiguity, Bear's series launch is a tempest of rousing SF adventure with a dash of Peckinpah. —Publishers Weekly on War Dogs
Military sci-fi, action and adventure, and a whole lot of thought-provoking complexity. —San Diego Union-Tribune on War Dogs
Packed with adventure and incident...and conveyed with gritty realism. —Kirkus on War Dogs
Greg Bear's voice is a resonant, clear chord of quality binding some of the best SF of the 20th Century to the short list of science-savvy, sophisticated, top-notch speculative fiction of the 21st. More than a grace note, Hull Zero Three is a compelling allegro in the growing symphony of Greg Bear's finest work. —Dan Simmons
“Stuffed with adrenaline-pumping action and mystifying ambiguity, Bear’s series…is a tempest of rousing SF adventure.” —Publishers Weekly, praise for the series
