Sunstorm Zusammenfassung

Sunstorm Sir Arthur C. Clarke

The observatory on the moon has the proof. Life on earth will be incinerated in April 2037 by a massive solar flare. It is building down and it is unstoppable. With only 18 months until doomsday mankind must unite and embark on the most ambitious engineering project ever: the construction, at the La Grange point between the sun and the earth, of a deflecting mirror the diameter of our home planet. The price of failure? Extinction.

One scientist, an expert on the sun, predicted the flare. One person who knew nothing about the sun nevertheless knew the exact date that life on earth would come to an end. She had witnessed the bizarre time dislocations brought by the 'eyes'. She knows who is responsible.

This is hard SF in the grand tradition of the genre

Sunstorm Bewertungen

A page turner of a read. This is another fine piece of work by Stephen Baxter. * DREAMWATCH *
Squarely in Stephen Baxter territory... gripping. -- Anthony Brown * STARBURST *
This is science fiction with the emphasis on science and the concepts are big, hard and very clever. -- Jon Courtenay Grimwood * GUARDIAN *
The science was innovative and often majestic, the picture of 2037 compelling, and the lean, direct, deft nature of the writing powered the narrative along... two of the most respected talents writing today. * OUTLAND *
...an impressive level of skill and an open-mindedness about what constitutes intelligence. -- Jon Courtenay Grimwood * SFX *
Two of the biggest hitters in the SF world. Full of big ideas, potted physics lessons and an intruiging meillenia-old alien threat. -- Dave Golder * BBC FOCUS *
