ISBN: 9780316005364.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a world renowned even within a galaxy full of wonders, a crime within a war. For one brother it means a desperate flight, and a search for the one - maybe two - people who could clear his name. For his brother it means a life lived under constant threat of treachery and murder. And for their sister, even without knowing the full truth, it means returning to a place shed thought abandoned forever.\n\nOnly the sister is not what she once was; Djan Seriy Anaplian has changed almost beyond recognition to become an agent of the Cultures Special Circumstances section, charged with high-level interference in civilisations throughout the greater galaxy.\n\nConcealing her new identity - and her particular set of abilities - might be a dangerous strategy, however. In the world to which Anaplian returns, nothing is quite as it seems; and determining the appropriate level of interference in someone elses war is never a simple matter.\n\nMATTER is a novel of dazzling wit and serious purpose. An extraordinary feat of storytelling and breathtaking invention on a grand scale, it is a tour de force from a writer who has turned science fiction on its head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Orbit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946442092597,"sku":"ByrdShop_0316005363","price":45.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780316005364_aecd8b3f-bac3-46dd-8d0b-4be169ec1e53.jpg?v=1781306049","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/matter-9780316005364","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
