Gilbert Snook is a footloose British expatriate living in the African state of Barandi. Always a misfit, he considers himself the social equivalent of a neutrino – a particle able to pass through the Earth without hitting or disturbing any other particle. So it is ironic that the discovery of an anti-neutrino planet, occupying the same space as Earth and populated by bizarre beings, should force the lonely and evasive Snook to become Mankind’s most controversial ambassador. A story of self-discovery within the framework of a gripping political thriller, A Wreath of Stars is one of Bob Shaw’s most memorable novels.

BOB SHAW, twice winner of the Hugo Award, is the author of some two dozen science fiction novels which have earned him a world-wide reputation. They include Orbitsville, Night Walk, The Peace Machine and, his most recent book, The Ragged Astronauts. Born in Belfast, where he worked for many years as a journalist, he now lives in Warrington.
