Heroes from either side of the conflict had the foresight to put their misunderstandings aside to create Sector General, a facility that was expected to promote peace.īecause Sector General is designed to serve the needs of various species, it has been equipped with a wide range of environments and facilities, though a notable amount of James White’s novels revolve around situations where the doctors of Sector General encounter a creature the space station was not build to accommodate. Sector General was created from the ashes of the first war in space that human beings ever fought. The space station is as large as they can get, boasting facilities designed to contend with the needs of a variety of species. It might surprise some readers to learn that there is, indeed, a series of novels about a giant hospital in space but that is exactly what Sector General is.
Sector General is a series of science fiction novels from James White about a massive hospital in deep space that services the needs of any and all life forms that walk through its doors.
