Shadows in Flight by Orson Scott Card
At the end of Shadow of the Giant, Bean flees to the stars with three
of his children--the three who share the engineered genes that gave him
both hyper-intelligence and a short, cruel physical life. The time
dilation granted by the speed of their travel gives Earth's scientists
generations to seek a cure, to no avail. In time, they are forgotten--a
fading ansible signal speaking of events lost to Earth's history. But
the Delphikis are about to make a discovery that will let them save
themselves, and perhaps all of humanity in days to come.
For there
in space before them lies a derelict Formic colony ship. Aboard it,
they will find both death and wonders--the life support that is failing
on their own ship, room to grow, and labs in which to explore their own
genetic anomaly and the mysterious disease that killed the ship's
colony.
Shadows in Flight is the fifth novel in Orson Scott Card's Shadow Series.
