Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. the obsession of a love that stands the test of time itself, from (close enough to) today all the way to the eschaton, and perhaps beyond... fascinating ideas along the way... ( ) El excepcional músico Drake Merlin se hace congelar junto a su esposa moribunda, Ana, con la esperanza de que el interés por sus estudios haga que le despierten en el futuro y pueda encontrar una cura para su amada. Cuando esto sucede, cinco siglos más tarde, Drake descubre que Ana aún no puede ser sanada, y emprende una apasionante carrera hacia el futuro despertando y congelándose en busca de la salvación de su esposa, atravesando el tiempo y hasta el espacio, desafiando las leyes físicas. Una emotiva y monumental historia escrita con una concisión y una garra pasmosas, repleta de ideas brillantes. An ambitious book that begins in the present day and ends billions of years later at the end of the Universe. Considering the time span, it's quite a short book. Sheffeld takes the reader on a grand tour of how humanity and human society might change and be changed by technology as ages pass. The plot is a little lack luster at times, but the hard science edged world building is a wonder to behold. Reads in many ways like a travelogue through Future Time. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
A man from Earth's distant past is humanity's only hope for a future... Drake Merlin's wife, the love of his life, is dying of a rare, fatal disease for which there is no cure. Not now, in the 21st century. But surely in the future... For Drake there is only one solution: have Ana's body frozen until she can be cured. And he will go with her into the cryowomb. It is a desperate gamble born of folly, obsession...and love. Thus begins an epic journey across eons, as Drake is revived again and again, only to find that Ana is beyond help. Millions of years past his first sleep, he learns there is hope for her restoration--at the Omega Point, where the universe collapses, merging past and present. But first he will be awakened to become humanity's unwilling savior. For an alien menace is laying the solar system to waste, and only an anachronism from the days of human barbarism can save an enlightened race.... From the Paperback edition.
