Description

A blockbuster science fiction adventure from world-wide phenomenon and No. 1 New York Times bestseller Christopher Paolini, set in the world of To Sleep in a Sea of Stars.

July 25th, 2234: The crew of the Adamura discovers the anomaly.

On the seemingly uninhabited planet Talos VII: a circular pit, 50 kilometers wide.

Its curve not of nature, but design.

Now, a small team must land and journey on foot across the surface to learn who built the hole - and why.

But they all carry the burdens of lives carved out on disparate colonies in the cruel cold of space.

For some, the mission is the dream of the lifetime. For others, a risk not worth taking. For one, it is a desperate attempt to find meaning in an uncaring universe.

Each step they take toward the mysterious abyss is more punishing than the last.

And the ghosts of their past follow . . .

Reviews

A powerful piece of SF, with intelligent writing and big ideas

-- Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of the Children of Time series on To Sleep in a Sea of Stars
Paolini's impressive imagination has produced an action-packed SF adventure that zings along at hyperluminal speed, with Kira as one of the most memorable characters of the genre -- Peter F. Hamilton, author of Pandora's Star on To Sleep in a Sea of Stars
Breathes new life into the classic first encounter narrative. . . . Paolini makes the experiences of his well-shaded explorers vivid and gripping through smart worldbuilding and believable stakes. James S.A. Corey fans will be especially riveted -- Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
This pulse-pounding science-fiction novel pits human curiosity and technology against alien tech deep in the cosmos . . . An excellent starting point for the series as a whole * Library Journal *
Paolini understands that in the best character-driven science-fiction stories, the alien tech is never as interesting as the human relationships. Tense and gripping * Kirkus Reviews *
Mounting tension, danger, and uncertainty . . . Shows Paolini's range as a storyteller * Booklist *
Dazzles with otherworldly delights - and unearthly nightmares. -- Newsweek on To Sleep in a Sea of Stars

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.
