62. Mori Grant - Deadliner: Generation ships, mothers in space, and AI

Alternate Futures

Mori Grant explores many human issues aboard Lucia, the generation ship in Deadliner, the first book of the Lucia Expeditions series. Not the least of these is the nature and importance of motherhood to the survival of a colony in space. We discuss this as well as the reality and fictional device of the generation ship and, of course, AI.

As usual, there are also the Big Questions.

Books of hers we discuss: Deadliner (Lucia Expedition series)
