More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
The city vessel Phoenix is in its 43rd year of the journey from Mars to the 55 Cancri system. The three species aboard are shocked to find the planet Nexus is nothing like the Axis remembered it to be. Renewal chronicles the deadly struggle between the crew and a life form which tries to control them. Meanwhile Earth and Mars are on the eve of war, and they are blissfully unaware of a similar threat being unleashed on them by the steadily rising ambient temperature on the red planet. The altered orbit of Nexus is stable, but this has been achieved by an event external to its solar system. The explanation is ultimately discovered, yet it is barely credible, and shapes the entire future of all three species. Renewal is a stand alone volume, but follows on from The Darwinian Extension and reveals all with respect to the elusive Progenitors.

Outstanding

Format:Paperback
A wonderful addition to the original trilogy "Darwinian Extension'. Brings the previous story to a conclusion and perhaps a fresh beginning. Please read the first three books in that series before this one. The subsequent discoveries and events on and near Nexus revealed and explained in this novel are fascinating. I wonder where his imagination might take this tale next?
How may books did Asimov and Clarke write before they were discovered by the mass Sci-Fi or wider readership? Great stories in this genre both predict and guide elements of the future, and I suspect this is in that category.
Thoughtful, cult reading waiting to be discovered.....
