Humans born and raised to withstand a zero-gravity environment and work in space for the Corporations as little more than indentured servants. Ostracized by the prejudices of 'grounded' people, the floaters have created a culture and society of their own. But now they want their freedom. Thiadora Murphy was born a floater. She has spent the last six years adapting to the rigors of life in gravity, among the 'normal' population, and is about to graduate from the military academy as a top pilot. But floater prejudice and distrust are everywhere, and Murphy's promising military career is cut short by sabotage. Murphy must accept the offer of a powerful Corporation to pilot the mysterious and experimental spacecraft the Gambit." . First Printing of the First Edition. Mass Market Paperback.
