From dust jacket: "In a major science fiction event, Nebula Award winners Poul Anderson, Greg Bear, Gregory Benford, Davin Brin, Nancy Kress, and Frederik Pohl join forces - under the editorship of Robert Silverberg - to create a triumph of world-building: Murasaki, a science fiction novel in six parts. Murasaki is completely based in hard science and what we know of the Murasaki star system - which actually exists...Murasaki, star HD 36393...where the gristmill of Darwinism produced two vastly different alien ecologies on two closely revolving planets, circling each other since scouring lighting storms stirred them to life billions of years ago. The two planets are Genji, violent and reckless, filled with a variety of ancient, crumbling cities, slowly going through its glacier death throes. Both planets are host to intelligences that are strange in ways Man can only guess at...and the planets have an eerie connection that will soon come to fruition after the first human explorers arrive."
