- Synopsis
- A bounty hunter has a legacy that he—and his clones—can&’t escape in this explosive science fiction adventure from the Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author. After more than a century in deep freeze, Jefferson Nighthawk is waking up from his sleep, finally cured of the disease that almost killed him. Now sixty-two years old, he&’s ready for a new kind of life, one of peace and quiet. The former bounty hunter has made enough widows, not to mention clones, one of whom still roams the galaxy . . . With his loyal trainer, Ito Kinoshita, by his side, Nighthawk looks for a place to settle down, to grow some flowers, and maybe even find a wife. What he isn&’t expecting is to be hounded to the ends of the universe by the enemies his two clones have made and by bloodthirsty men out to make a reputation for themselves. Nighthawk and Kinoshita try to stay one step ahead of his pursuers, but when that doesn&’t work, Nighthawk&’s instincts take over—and the killing begins. There&’s only one way to escape being the Widowmaker—and Nighthawk is just about desperate enough to try it . . .Praise for Mike Resnick &“Resnick is thought-provoking, imaginative . . . and above all galactically grand.&” —Los Angeles Times &“Nobody spins a yarn better than Mike Resnick. Best of all, when the story&’s over, you find that he&’s left something in your memory for you to draw on again and again: a clearer understanding of how nobility emerges from the struggles of life.&” —Orson Scott Card, New York Times–bestselling author of Ender&’s Game
