Producent: Vesper
The universe has existed long before you and will persist even after you're gone. Make an impact worth remembering. It's the year 2575, a seemingly ordinary day in the Kerenza colony, established by the giant corporation KWU for the extraction of rare resources. That morning, Kady Grant breaks up with her boyfriend, Ezra Mason, vowing never to speak to him again. Little did she anticipate witnessing an invasion by BeiTech, which would displace her and thousands of others from their homes. Survivors are evacuated on three spacecraft: Alexander, Hypatia, and Copernicus, pursued by the hostile battleship Lincoln, intent on silencing the eyewitnesses of the violent assault. Meanwhile, a deadly virus spreads on Copernicus, and the artificial intelligence steering Alexander emerges as the greatest threat to the survivors. Kady manages to hack into the encrypted memory of the ships, unveiling the terrifying truth of the events unfolding before her. Remarkably, it's Ezra, her ex-boyfriend, who might hold the key to averting catastrophe."Illuminae" transports you into the 26th century through an unconventional narrative style, presenting a unique dossier of classified military reports, emails, plans, schematics, and snippets of computer code. This approach immerses you right into the heart of the action. Amie Kaufman, co-author of the bestselling "Starbound" trilogy, and Jay Kristoff, creator of the award-winning "Lotus War" series, have combined their talents. Both towering at a collective height of 380 centimeters, they reside in Melbourne with their spouses, frequently stressed by their creative endeavors, along with two adopted dogs and a large stash of coffee. Their partnership, sparked by international tax law and a shared passion for explosive storytelling and dramatic romances, has crafted a narrative that captivates readers worldwide.Beth Revis, author of "Across the Universe," describes it as a rare book that keeps your heart racing, unraveling the mysteries of its world while rooting for beloved characters to survive. According to Laini Taylor, bestselling author of "Daughter of Smoke and Bone," the book offers defiant teens, charming fighter pilots, an abundance of love and disappointment, an unstable warship, and even pink hair, declaring it as "freaking amazing." Scott Westerfeld, author of "Uglies," praises it as a brilliant space opera with zombies and hackers, blending romance with political intrigue in an incredibly original manner. Veronica Rossi, author of the "Under the Never Sky" trilogy, lauds it as dazzlingly original, smart, funny, and touching—a book she's longed for. Marie Lu, writer of the bestselling "Legend" series, invites readers to prepare for an imaginative journey they won't want to leave.
