The Love Song of Laura Morrison

When Teigh arrives on the orbiting space colony to help build humanity’s first starship, he makes an unusual friend: a technophobe who seems to be just waiting to die of old age. But there’s more to Laura Morrison than meets the eye, as Teigh learns when he tries to push her into rejoining the 21st century.
"The Love Song of Laura Morrison" is the 9th volume in the collected works of Jerry Oltion. Jerry has had his short stories published in most of the major science fiction venues and has had several successful novels, including four highly acclaimed Star Trek books. He has become the most published author in the history of Analog magazine. His stories have won the Nebula award, the Endeavor award, the Seiun award, and have been nominated multiple times for the Hugo award. His stories are often humorous, with likeable characters using intelligence and competence (as opposed to force and violence) to solve their problems. His style harks back to the golden age of science fiction, yet with a modern sensibility and relevance. Even his earliest works hold up well today — and on into the future.
