The astounding new novel from the master of science fiction President Barack Obama’s summer reading choice
What would happen if the world were ending?
When a catastrophic event renders the earth a ticking time bomb, it triggers a feverish race against the inevitable. An ambitious plan is devised to ensure the survival of humanity far beyond our atmosphere. But unforeseen dangers threaten the intrepid pioneers, until only a handful of survivors remain…
Five thousand years later, their progeny – seven distinct races now three billion strong – embark on yet another audacious journey into the unknown, to an alien world utterly transformed by cataclysm and time: Earth.
A writer of dazzling genius and imaginative vision, Neal Stephenson combines science, philosophy, technology, psychology, and literature in a magnificent work of speculative fiction that offers a portrait of a future that is at once extraordinary and eerily recognizable. He explores some of our biggest ideas and perplexing challenges in a breathtaking saga that is daring, engrossing, and altogether brilliant.

A great book can easily be ruined by a narrator with an irritating voice. This is one of those books

I really liked some bits, others not so much. The science fiction was super, anticipating human nature was naiive.

Første 2/3 av boken er svært oppslukende og full av interessante og tankevekkende elementer av politikk, fysikk- og vitenskap. Siste 1/3 mister litt av drivet, men drar seg til slutt opp igjen.. En av de mer spennende og ambisiøse "Hva hvis.." science fiction bøkene jeg har lest/hørt på en stund.

Ikke noe for en ikke-nerd hvertfall!Holdt ut i 4t, så klarte jeg ikke mer.Utrolig kjedelig, kunne vært bedre om den hadde vært kuttet ned til kanskje 18t, fjernet all "unødvendig" teknisk prat 😴
