Book Description

October 1990
Roger Griffin's lifetime dream lay before him. He stood within an immense interstellar vessel that had lain beneath the Wyoming mountains for millennia. It had remained a virtually impenetrable fortress to the scientific teams that prowled its two-mile-long exterior-until they managed to pry open the door. Then the dream of scientific discovery became a horrific nightmare as an earthquake awakened the long dormant brain of the malfunctioning spacecraft-and rocked the door shut. Griffin and his fellow survivors frantically tried to escape, but the ship's computer took steps to rescue itself and exterminate the humans in board. Suddenly, the newly awakened control room displayed a clock for its terrified inhabitants to see. Its lights blinked in and off, but the message was clear: Six hours until lift-off. Six hours to live. Six hours to die.

4.0 out of 5 stars Action packed quick adventure, December 6, 2003
By 
This review is from: The Asgard Run (Paperback)
The basics - you find a huge spaceship, you somehow get inside, you can't get out, you do something that "wakes" up the ship and you know (somehow) that you have six hours to make it from one to the other or take an uninvited celestial tour.

Ok, suspend your questions for about two hours. Don't ask how they breath the air or how they get through the alien vessel or why the thoughts of one human can affect the virtual visions more than a race of super beings. We have the usual mysterious lights, the inexplicable machines and for a bonus get to see a real unlive alien. But there is no scientific psedo-theory to ponder and it's not preachy - no lectures on atomic weapons or the environment or world peace - just a rollicking good time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Original and exciting look at the possibilities of space!, June 19, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Asgard Run (Paperback)
What do you think would happen if a giant spaceship was found on earth? Whatever you think, you will not have imagined this! Every bit of the book is filled with action. I couldn't put it down! This could be made into an excellent movie and I sincerely hope there is, or will be a sequel
