A really exceptional example given the books prominent white colouring and therefore susceptible to grubbing/marking. Author's 2nd novel and follow-up to his critically acclaimed,international, sensation debut of 'The Quantum Thief'.
On the edges of physical space a thief, helped by a sardonic ship,is trying to break into a Schrodinger box.
He is doing the job for his patron,and owner of the ship,Mieli.In the box is his freedom.Or not.
The box is protected by codes that twist logic and sanity.And the ship is under attack.
The thief is nearly dead,the ship is being eaten alive.
Jean de Flambeur is running out of time. All of him.
And on earth,two sisters in a city of fast ones,shadow players and jinni contemplate a revolution.
There are many more stories than can be told even in a thousand nights and one night,but these two stories will twist,and combine.And reality will spiral.
In Hannu Rajaniemi's sparkling follow-up to his debut novel 'The Quantum Thief,he returns to his awe-inspiring vision of the universe and we find out what the future held for Earth.
