| Summary: | It's the eve of the twenty-second century: a world where the dearly departed send postcards back from Heaven and evangelicals make scientific breakthroughs by speaking in tongues. A world that's under surveillance by an alien presence that refuses to show itself. Daniel Brüks is a living fossil: a field biologist in a world where biology has turned computational. Taking refuge in the Oregon desert, he's turned his back on a humanity that shatters into strange new subspecies with every heartbeat. Now he's trapped on a ship bound for the center of the solar system. And dead ahead, a handful of rapture-stricken monks takes them all to a meeting with something they will only call the Angels of the Asteroids." |
