As the waters rose in FLOOD, high in the Colorado mountains the US government was building an ark. Not an ark to ride the waves but an ark that would take a select few hundred people out into space to start a new future for mankind. Sent out into deep space on an epic journey centuries, generations of crew members carry the hope of a new beginning on a new, incredibly distant, planet. But as the decades pass knowledge and purpose is lost and division and madness grows. And back on earth life, and man, find a new way. This is the epic sequel to the acclaimed FLOOD; a stirring tale of what mankind will do to survive and the perfect introduction for new readers to one of SF's greatest tropes; the generation ship. Written by one of the most significant SF writers of the last 30 years, a man considered to be the heir of Arthur C. Clarke as a writer with a unique ability to popularize science and science fiction for the largest possible audience FLOOD and ARK together form a landmark in modern SF.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En Ark, mientras las aguas subían, el gobierno de EE. UU. estaba construyendo un arca en las montañas de Colorado. No un arca para montar las olas, sino un arca que llevaría a unos pocos miles de personas al espacio para comenzar un nuevo futuro para la humanidad. Enviados al espacio profundo en un viaje que dura siglos, generaciones de miembros de la tripulación llevan la esperanza de un nuevo comienzo en un planeta nuevo e increíblemente distante. Pero a medida que pasan las edades, el conocimiento y el propósito se pierden y la división y la locura crecen. Y de vuelta en la tierra, la vida y el hombre encuentran una nueva forma. Esta es la secuela épica de Flood; una historia conmovedora de lo que la humanidad hará para sobrevivir y la introducción perfecta para los nuevos lectores a uno de los tropos más grandes de la ciencia ficción; la nave generacional. Escrito por uno de los escritores de ciencia ficción más importantes de los últimos 30 años, un hombre considerado el heredero de Arthur C. Clarke como escritor con una capacidad única para popularizar la ciencia y la ciencia ficción para la mayor audiencia posible, Flood y Ark juntos forman un hito en la ciencia ficción moderna.
