THE GOLDEN SPACE
Timescape/Pocket, hardcover, 1982
$30.00 each

In a world where biological advances have made human beings immortal,
various characters try to find meaning in their long lives through a
project to create a more "rational" race, by involvement in death cults,
and through new social institutions.
     "The Golden Space is a major intellectual achievement of SF
literature.  It will not be possible for any honest story of immortality
hereafter to ignore it; it is a landmark."  --Algis Budrys

THE ALIEN UPSTAIRS
Doubleday, hardcover, 1983
$25.00 each

Sarah and Gerard live in a near-future world of food shortages, power
blackouts, and the increasing climatic changes of a new ice age.  When a
stranger claiming to be an alien moves into their building, their efforts
to find out the truth about their new neighbor lead them on a strange
adventure.
     "...the book's real strength lies in the suble use of detail...and
in the superb characterizations. Highly recommended."  --The ALA Booklist

THE SHORE OF WOMEN
Crown, hardcover, 1986
$35.00 each

A novel about a post-nuclear Earth in which women, determined that men 
will never again have the power to destroy the world, control all knowledge
and advanced technology.  Women live in vast, walled cities, while men must
survive in the wilderness outside, going to cities only when they are
needed to sire future generations.  The story is told by Laissa, a young
woman in one city; Arvil, a young hunter who lives in the wilderness; and
Birana, an exile from the city.

     "I applaud Ms. Sargent's ambition and admire the way she has
unflinchingly pursued the logic of her vision."  --Gerald Jonas, The New
York Times Book Review

      "Ms. Sargent's style is beautifully spare, and draws one insidiously
into a novel that is seductive at the outset and tenacious in its hold on
the reader even beyond the last page."  --Pauline Gedge

VENUS OF SHADOWS
Doubleday Foundation, hardcover, 1988
$30.00 each

Risa Liangharad and her family, who are among the first settlers on the
surface of a terraformed Venus, are caught up in the social and political
conflicts of their new world.

     "...alive with humanity, moving and memorable."  --Faren Miller, Locus

     "Beyond its gripping political intrigues and fascinating sociological
truths, Venus of Shadows is a masterly piece of world-building."  --James
Morrow

CHILD OF VENUS
Eos/HarperCollins, hardcover, 2001
$30.00 each

Mahala Liangharad is a true Child of Venus ¯ conceived from the genetic 
material of the cult leaders who brought chaos and horror to this planet in 
transition. To some, she should never have been born; others see her as the 
future. Now catastrophe looms, and it is Mahala who must ensure that there is 
a future for her people.

“Nebula and Locus award-winner Sargent’s latest novel completes her masterful 
SF trilogy (Venus of Shadows and Venus of Dreams) about terraforming the 
planet Venus.  Thanks to the advanced technology of the Habbers (humans who 
long ago left Earth to carve out habitats inside asteroids), colonists live 
and work in reasonable comfort within domed settlements on Venus’s surface 
while progress continues on making the planet’s atmosphere breathable, 
advances that irritate to no end the jealous Earth-based Islamic power base 
of Mukhtars.  Through the eyes of young Mahala Liangharad, Sargent gives 
readers an intimate view of life as a colonists, caught between two rival 
powers limited by the Mukhtars to those jobs deemed necessary to the colony’s 
growth, while the mysterious Habbers seem to offer something more.  Then 
Habber electronics pick up a radio signal from an alien intelligence 600 
light-years away, and shifting priorities threaten the delicate balance of 
power between Earth and space, as well as the completion of the terraforming 
itself.  As in previous books, Sargent brings her world to life with 
sympathetic characters and crisp, concise language.”   --Publishers Weekly
