Told in first-person narrative from four different points of view, "The Eternity Artifact" is a return to a slower-moving space hard science fiction for Modesitt. While there are not a lot of space battles, there is a great deal of mystery and intrigue, and looking at what is occurring from the four differing points of view is a neat idea.

The Eternity Artifact

I believe it is "Archeform: Beauty" where he did this sort of thing before. Each character has been chosen to go on an exploratory mission to Danann, a planet in the galactic void with mysterious buildings upon it.

His characterization was richer in this book than in many others, telling the story from multiple viewpoints and distinctive voices. Modesitt at his best! Well written tale of something that intrigues us all: The Comity mounts an expedition to investigate this world, and certain of the other groups attempt to interfere in various ways and for various reasons. The story discusses the expedition from the perspective of four viewpoint characters.
