      abstract = {Odd-mannered, obsessive, withdrawn, Aster has little to  offer folks in the way of rebuttal when they call her ogre  and freak. She's used to the names; she only wishes there  was more truth to them. If she were truly a monster, as  they accuse, she'd be powerful enough to tear down the  walls around her until nothing remained of her world, save  for stories told around the cook fire. Aster lives in the  low-deck slums of the HSS Matilda, a space vessel organized  much like the antebellum South. For generations, the  Matilda has ferried the last of humanity to a mythical  Promised Land. On its way, the ship's leaders have imposed  harsh moral restrictions and deep indignities on  dark-skinned sharecroppers like Aster, who they consider to  be less than human. Embroiled in a grudge with a brutal  overseer and sewing the seeds of civil war, Aster learns  there may be a way off the ship if she's willing to fight  for it.},
