The Book of the Short Sun (Used Hardcover) - Gene Wolfe

When The Book of the Long Sun, Gene Wolfe’s science fantasy masterpiece, concluded, the Whorl – a giant generational starship sent out from Urth 300 years before – had arrived at its destination, a solar system with two habitable planets, Blue and Green. At the urging of Whorl’s religious leader, Patera Silk, the people left the ship for an uncertain future on Blue – a world already inhabited by the inhumi, blood-drinking aliens who take human form.

Now The Book of the Short Sun carries the story forward to the years after the great exodus, to let Horn, narrator of the earlier work, tell his own story. This omnibus volume contains On Blue's Waters, In Green's Jungle, Return to the Whorl.
