Krátky popis
In 2145AD John Hackett's adventure is just beginning.In Year 30,
Mela's story is coming to a close.Hackett, in his trusty ship the
Perseus, is not just a space traveller - beginning his travels with
an expedition to Neptune and back - but, thanks to the
time-dilation effect, a time traveller as well. His new mission
will take him to Andromeda, to get a close-up look at the
constellation which will eventually crash into the Milky Way, and
give humanity a heads-up about the challenges which are coming.A
mission which will take him five million years to complete.Not only
is Hackett exploring unknown space, but he will return to a vastly
different time.Mela's world is coming to an end. Erosion is eating
away at the edges of every landmass - first at a rate of ten metres
a year, but fast accelerating, displacing people and animals as the
rising Tide destroys everything in its path. Putting more and more
pressure on the people - and resources - which remain.She and her
people have always known that this long-predicted end to their
home, one of the Thousand Earths, is coming - but that makes their
fight to survive, to protect each other, no less desperate . . .
and no less doomed.A beautiful, page-turning story which
interweaves the tale of these two characters, separated by both
space and time, in a hopeful exploration of humanities' future,
this is Stephen Baxter at his best.
