About the Book
Multiple Nebula and Hugo Award-winner Greg Bear returns to the Earth of his acclaimed novel Eon — a world devastated by nuclear war. The crew of the asteroid-starship Thistledown has thwarted an attack by the Jarts by severing their link to the Way,
an endless corridor that spans universes. The asteroid settled into
orbit around Earth and the tunnel snaked away, forming a contained
universe of its own.
Forty years later, on Gaia, Rhita
Vaskayza recklessly pursues her legacy, seeking an Earth once again
threatened by forces from within and without. For physicist Konrad
Korzenowski, murdered for creating The Way, and resurrected, is
compelled by a faction determined to see it opened once more. And
humankind will discover just how entirely they have underestimated their ancient adversaries.
