Six-time Hugo Award winner Ben Bova chronicles the saga of humankind’s expansion beyond the solar system.
In Ben Bova’s previous novel New Earth, Jordan Kell led the first human mission beyond the solar system, where they discovered the ruins of an ancient alien civilization. But one alien AI survived, and it revealed to Jordan Kell that an explosion in the black hole at the heart of the Milky Way galaxy has created a wave of deadly radiation, expanding out from the core toward Earth. Unless the human race acts to save itself, all life on Earth will be wiped out.
When Kell and his team return to Earth many years after their departure, they find that their world has changed almost beyond recognition. Not only has a second wave of greenhouse flooding caused sea levels to rise, but society has been changed by the consequences of the climate shift. Few people want to face Jordan Kell’s news. He must convince Earth’s new rulers that the human race is in danger of extinction unless it acts to forestall the death wave coming from the galaxy’s heart.

So, this book was not as good as the first. No space, no adventure, no mystery (ok, a bit of space but not much). What I wanted to happen after the first book happens in the third. This was a haul to the third book. Edit: I have reconsidered abit. I will give it one more star. It's a good book, and you will learn more about the death wave.

En bra bok med en hel del spänning och mycket politiskt drama. Den skiljer sig mycket från första boken i och med det. Istället för nya upptäckter på en ny planet hamnar man i en politisk konflikt med massor av intrigerande. Denna boken känns nästan mer som en spion roman än sifi men jag gillade den ändå, men hoppas att nästa i serien är mer som den första boken.

En aning annorlunda ifrån första utan men fortfarande håller den sig på samma spår. Helt klart värd att lyssna på för de som vill ha en lite annorlunda sci-fi.
