Too proud to bother them, she hides the progressing symptoms until it is too late - until she can be given no life at all outside a mechanical support system. But Tia won't be satisfied to glide through life like a ghost in a glorified wheelchair. She would rather strap on a spaceship. And Tia has a special mission: to seek out whatever it was that laid her low, to understand and then eliminate it, to make sure that no other young girl will suffer the fate of 'The Ship Who Searched'. Set in the same universe as 'The Ship Who Sang', 'The Ship Who Searched' is a tale of courage and adventure from one of the best-loved and most inspirational writers of science fiction today:- (original cost £4.99).
