Coyote: A Novel of Interstellar Exploration
An interstellar adventure of earthborn people seeking freedom from tyranny on another world from a Hugo Award–winning author.
The totalitarian United Republic of America rose from the ashes of a nation that once represented democratic liberty on Earth. Its rulers wish to expand their ideological ambitions to the stars where they will establish a new colony on an inhabitable moon known as Coyote.
The crew and colonists aboard the Alabama undertaking this mission are not representatives of the Republic. They are those who have suffered under its cruelty and seek the free life that has long been denied them.
More than two hundred years have passed since these intrepid rebels stole the starship and left Earth. The colonists have endured tragedies during their journey and struggle to survive with scant resources on an alien world with dangerous life forms to make Coyote their home.
But those still living on the despotic planet they left behind have not forgotten them . . .
"Full of pleasant surprises." —The New York Times Book Review
"One of the best space-exploration novels." —Rocky Mountain News
"An homage to wonder, hope and determination . . . Steele has constructed this glorious tale of a new starflung Mayflower from the legacies of Heinlein, Twain, Hemingway and others—and he has founded it on the essence of America." —Stephen Baxter, multi-award–winning author

About the Author

Before becoming a science fiction writer, Allen Steele was a journalist for newspapers and magazines in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Missouri, and his home state of Tennessee. But science fiction was his first love, so he eventually ditched journalism and began producing that which had made him decide to become a writer in the first place.

Since then, Steele has published eighteen novels and nearly one hundred short stories. His work has received numerous accolades, including three Hugo Awards, and has been translated worldwide, mainly into languages he can't read. He serves on the board of advisors for the Space Frontier Foundation and is a member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. He also belongs to Sigma, a group of science fiction writers who frequently serve as unpaid consultants on matters regarding technology and security.

Allen Steele is a lifelong space buff, and this interest has not only influenced his writing, it has taken him to some interesting places. He has witnessed numerous space shuttle launches from Kennedy Space Center and has flown NASA's shuttle cockpit simulator at the Johnson Space Center. In 2001, he testified before the US House of Representatives in hearings regarding the future of space exploration. He would like very much to go into orbit, and hopes that one day he'll be able to afford to do so.

Steele lives in western Massachusetts with his wife, Linda, and a continual procession of adopted dogs. He collects vintage science fiction books and magazines, spacecraft model kits, and dreams.
