Rozgwiazda

by: Peter Watts (author)

4.17 15

Ogromna, międzynarodowa korporacja wybudowała obiekt na Grzbiecie Juana de Fuki, na dnie Pacyfiku, by móc wykorzystywać nagromadzoną tam energię geotermalną. Następnie wysłała tam zmodyfikowaną biologicznie załogę - ludzi przystosowanych do oddychania wodą morską i znoszenia ogromnego ciśnienia - która ma żyć i pracować w tym osobliwym, podwodnym świecie.

Niestety, jedyni ludzie, którzy na dłuższą metę nadają się do pracy w eksperymentalnych elektrowniach, to szaleńcy. Część z nich na swój nieprzyjemny sposób. Ilu z nich dane będzie przetrwać, podczas gdy całemu światu zagraża niebezpieczeństwo z oceanicznych głębin?

I'm not a fan of multi POVs, but I can honestly say that I was so engrossed in the book that I just didn't care - I just wanted to see what happened next. I loved the book - though it was pretty dark and full of less than savoury people. I think that's why it didn't bother me so much with the POVs. ...

Pretty darn good, especially for a first novel - some very interesting and plausible science, and an interesting portrayal of a cast of very flawed people....one hopes for a sequel. (oh - I guess there is one....duh)
