Michael Sorenson: The Utopian Uplift, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Mark Hall's new job as a colonial auditor seemed like a good thing-it kept him out of the office, allowed for travel, and let him make new friends. It was a new lease on life he was looking forward to-that is, until the day he pulled into the town of Kearney.

Situated at the edge of settled land and skirting a planetary uplift that dominates the skyline, he began to discover that something wasn't right. Stories travel, but in this small farming and ranching town, these stories were kept close-and no one was talking.

Rumors of disease, ruined crops and a darkness that seemed to inhabit the very land kept stabbing at his thoughts-forcing him to look deep inside himself and at the past he wanted to leave behind.
