The Brainships

The Brainships stories imagine people whose minds are joined to starships, creating a partnership between human consciousness and spacecraft. The books explore identity, agency and belonging through several linked but distinct characters. Start with The Ship Who Sang, then follow the publication sequence for Anne McCaffrey’s solo and co-written entries. The route here does not include later franchise novels written without McCaffrey.
