Description
A 2019 Locus Award finalist, Alastair Reynolds' Permafrost is a gripping time-traveling climate fiction adventure. In this novel, humanity's future hangs in the balance as a group of scientists and engineers attempt to alter the past to prevent a global catastrophe. Their goal is ambitious: to make a tiny change to history while preserving recorded events. To achieve this, they require an individual with a unique skillset - someone whose late mother was an expert in the mathematics of paradox. Meanwhile, a young woman's life is disrupted by an unwanted presence that seems to have its own purpose. As she navigates this new reality, she must make a choice: resist or collaborate. With its blend of science fiction and climate fiction elements, Permafrost is a thought-provoking exploration of the consequences of human action.
