Aprašymas

Stasis appeals to fans of hard science, mystery, and adventure. An excellent hard science fiction novel with a solid premise, it excels in dialogue, and narrative. The incredibly detailed hard and soft sciences show just what the lands orbiting at stasis points are like. Mr. Guild has taken some very technical material and rendered it quite clear, accessible, and, most importantly, interesting.At the end of the twenty-third century the Earth was recovering from devastating famines caused by global warming. Part of that recovery was the development of agricultural and manufacturing lands orbiting at stasis points. Shipments from stasis lands were dropping off, and the Earth once again faced famine. Ian Doggend, an economist, was tasked with traveling the space lands to find and fix the causes of the declining shipments. Stasis follows that investigation through economics, physics, espionage, and extreme sports, culminating in murder and redemption.
