Published 2023. Supposed to be about 30 years in the future. It starts with Underwater exploration and moves on to the need to travel in space using a propulsion technology given by unknowns to earth.
It's good, the space travel is reminiscent of Foundation by Asimov(1951).
Some anomalies to me are on page 209 there is a 19 digit number repeated, but what number base is this number? And why 3042 repeats?
Page 309, at the start of chapter 11 "The Power does no Exist". But neither does Electricity or Magnetism. You can't hold them in your hand or see them. And a joke about a cat refers to Schrodingers Cat, unknown to many.
Page 323 The dimensions are in Imperial feet and inches, but on page 340 the distances are metric.
2031 was the last of Proscenium 1. Ci had come on the scene with ICORS in 2026 - This current year! It is the 2040s when she travels to Ascension.
The part where Helena is looking for answers and travels to Ascension Island had me wondering if Leigh and co. would still return. The ending and the 'if you like' use of Leigh's body as the start of a new creation of mankind was quite an ending to the book.
I have to mark it as 8.
People said it was well written.
