Shadows in flight / Orson Scott Card.

Card, Orson Scott. (Author).

Summary:

Bean flees to the stars with three of his children-- the three who share the engineered genes that gave him both hyper-intelligence and a short, cruel physical life. The time dilation granted by the speed of their travel gives Earth's scientists generations to seek a cure, to no avail. In time, they are forgotten-- a fading signal speaking of events lost to Earth's history. But the Delphikis are about to make a discovery that will let them save themselves, and perhaps all of humanity.
