Summary: An immense pulse of solar energy is going to be directed at the earth, enough energy to destroy all life on the planet and render it uninhabitable. Can various characters manage to save life on Earth?
Response: A gripping story of humankind's attempt to overcome a challenge of immense proportions. And they still don't answer half the questions I had left over from the last book! (They just distracted me from them.) The technology involved in this book is amazing. I don't know how they could possibly have thought up some of the stuff involved. It'll be interesting to see if any of it becomes a reality. Who knows how 2037-2042 as imagined from ~25 years before will compare to 2037-2042 as they really happen.
Comment: It's rather strange to take a break from reading a book and find out that one of the authors of said book just died.
