Description
Tanner Mirabel's world was turned upside down when a woman in his care vanished into thin air. His pursuit of her took him across vast distances to Chasm City, a once-thriving human settlement on the unforgiving planet of Yellowstone. However, upon arrival, he found that this supposed utopia had become a Gothic nightmare. A nanotechnological virus had ravaged the city, infecting its inhabitants as thoroughly as it had corrupted the buildings and machines. As Tanner delved deeper into the mystery, he uncovered truths that stretched back centuries, towards an atrocity history barely remembered. His quest for answers would lead him down a path of discovery, confronting the darker aspects of human nature. In this gripping tale, Alastair Reynolds masterfully weaves together elements of science fiction and space opera to create a complex and thought-provoking narrative.
