Synopsis
|
The
first novel of
colonies in space.
Hurtling across
a vast and rousing
canvas, from
Baghdad to what
remains of New
York City ... from
Messina, the
capital of the
Earth, to the
moon, to Island
One, the
magnificent colony
in space ... Ben
Bova's
extraordinary
novel is a
brilliant epic of
sheer storytelling
power.
Colony is
the story of
once-proud cities
of the Earth made
humble by greed
and revenge, of
Stone Age cultures
and advanced
civilizations in
space, of a cast
of extraordinary
and memorable
characters from
the remote corners
of the globe and
beyond ... and of
David Adams, the
first genetically
perfect test-tube
human being - the
only man who can
save the Earth
from final
destruction. |
