Özet

In the year 2031, a robot probe detects traces of biological activity on Enceladus, one of Saturn's moons. This sensational discovery shows that there is indeed evidence of extraterrestrial life. Fifteen years later, a hurriedly built spacecraft sets out on the long journey to the ringed planet and its moon. The international crew is not just facing a difficult twenty-seven months: if the spacecraft manages to make it to Enceladus without incident it must use a drillship to penetrate the kilometer-thick sheet of ice that entombs the moon. If life does indeed exist on Enceladus, it could only be at the bottom of the salty, ice covered ocean, which formed billions of years ago.

However, shortly after takeoff disaster strikes the mission, and the chances of the crew making it to Enceladus, let alone back home, look grim. From internationally best-selling hard science fiction author Brandon Q. Morris comes a new novel for hard science fiction enthusiasts. As a physicist and space specialist, Morris describes the journey of the international expedition through the hostile vacuum of space, using the latest scientific findings and technology trends as his inspiration. This isn't a 'What If' story, this is a 'When Will' story.

Something about the narrative and the way story evolves I didn't enjoy. Hope it gets better in the next book.

Not great, not bad.

mind-numbingly bad writing. I got halfway through before I had to give up as an alternative to gnawing my own ears off.

Was there no editor?

I rarely bail out of a story part way through but this one has somehow had the pace and drama sucked out of events that should raise the heartbeat and leave the reader/listener concerned for the protagonists. The reading is as remote and lifeless as the ice moon to which the title refers; the characters are never fully developed into figures with whom one might have some empathy; and the interesting hard science is left marooned by a narrative in which crises are related with the same evocative passion as directions from a SatNav.

SPACECRAFT DOESNT LEAVE EARTH TILL CHAPTER 36 THE WORST SCO FI BOOK I HAVE EVER READ.

A WASTE OF TIME

Very soft science fiction, not hard science fiction as claimed, badly written, robotic narration, generic story. Overall poor.

Feels like it was written and narrated by an AI !
