Lucifer's Hammer - Larry Niven

Descriere Lucifer's Hammer - Larry Niven

The trade paper re-launch of a classic sci-fi bestseller from the authors of the acclaimed alien invasion epic Footfall. For millionaire Tim Hamner, the comet he helped discover is a ticket to immortality. For filmmaker Harvey Randall, it's a chance to redeem a flagging career. And for astronauts John Baker and Rick Delanty, it's a second chance for glory in outer space. \nThe first satisfying end-of-the-world novel in years . . . an ultimate one . . . massively entertaining.--Cleveland Plain-Dealer \nThe gigantic comet had slammed into Earth, forging earthquakes a thousand times too powerful to measure on the Richter scale, tidal waves thousands of feet high. Cities were turned into oceans; oceans turned into steam. It was the beginning of a new Ice Age and the end of civilization. \n \nBut for the terrified men and women chance had saved, it was also the dawn of a new struggle for survival--a struggle more dangerous and challenging than any they had ever known. . . . \n \nTake your earthquakes, waterlogged condominiums, swarms of bugs, colliding airplanes and flaming what-nots, wrap them up and they wouldn't match one page of Lucifer's Hammer for sweaty-palmed suspense.--Chicago Daily News\n
