Description
Book SynopsisThe latest (posthumous) novel by one of the most brilliant science fiction writers, Arthur C. Clarke, written in collaboration with another great master of the genre, Frederik Pohl, addresses a world in which three great powers, United States, China and Europe find themselves doomed to a struggle for supremacy despite their desire to reach a peace. The most dangerous threat, however, comes unexpectedly from abroad, and the secret investigations carried out in search of a definitive weapon must then reorient themselves in the face of this external aggression, which may be the only thing capable of uniting them in a common project. Through the story of a young astronomer and mathematician obsessed with a theorem that seems to hold the secrets of the universe, Clarke and Pohl develop a shocking and compelling vision of what the future holds for humanity.
