A Hard Sci-Fi Megastructure Sequel of First Contact, Alien Biology, and Deep-Space Exploration
Seventy-seven years after the alien cylindrical vessel Rama traversed Earth's solar system, a second identical alien megastructure enters the solar system in 2208. Earth dispatches a twelve-person scientific expedition aboard the spacecraft Newton to intercept Rama II, including medical officer Dr. Nicole des Jardins and engineer Richard Wakefield.
Exploring the fifty-kilometer interior of the craft, the crew encounters active alien biological units ("biots") and mysterious artificial biomes. As crew rivalries escalate and geopolitical panic on Earth leads to nuclear strike orders against the vessel, the team must fight to survive inside the alien ship.
Why You’ll Love This Book
Grand Master Arthur C. Clarke and Gentry Lee expand the iconic Rama saga with detailed hard science fiction exploration, alien megastructures, and high-stakes survival. Essential reading for fans of Greg Bear, Larry Niven, and Alastair Reynolds.
