This has been lying on my tbr mountain for ages and now I know why, after reading Nemesis and Shattered Icon I was really looking forward to this. I found it really disappointing, it wasn't the science that let the book down it was the rest of the story. When the George Bush clone is the most reasonable of the world leaders involved in the story then you know that you've got problems. Having said that I did read this in one sitting so it can't be that bad, I just think it suffers in comparison with his other books. ( ) Lots of accurate science and some speculation when a special team of scientists at the site of an underground lake are bombarded with a message from outer space. Upon investigation by the math genius, it seems to have the structure of DNA and other information of great value, but politics and fear by various governments + a spy in their midst make it doubtful if the information will ever get out and threatens their lives. It had good descriptions and explored much of the history of contact with outer space phenomena. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
A planetary monitoring station in Eastern Europe is suddenly bombarded with rhythmic bursts of light particles from beyond earth - a pattern so regular and complex that they can only have emanated from a highly evolved intelligence. As the scientists begin to decode the messages, they are amazed by the information they reveal: secrets of a technology far in advance of our own, suggesting that a benign civilisation wishes to share its knowledge with humankind. Surely, the scientists argue, the signals should be acknowledged and contact established. But the world's superpowers have other ideas, and suddenly the scientists find themselves at the heart of a global conspiracy - on the run from forces determined to claim the benefits of the alien messages for themselves. And what will be the effect on a world suddenly faced with unimaginable technological breakthrough...? Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
