Book Description

January 1, 2002
In 2256, the world ended. All life on the Earth's surface perished.

And, the Universe didn't even notice.

Or, did it?

Now it's 2881, six hundred years later. Is there a 'Ninth Day' for Man?

A future human drama about what happened to us-- 600 years after our world ended. Engaging, entertaining, exploring whether we have an ultmate destiny, and whether the Universe is master or servant to our creation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, April 3, 2003

This review is from: The Ninth Day (Paperback)
I love this book. I was especially impressed with the science involved. One portion, (I am ashamed to say) made me cry. I can't wait for the next book. I hope there is a next book. This story begs to be continued.

5.0 out of 5 stars Startling ending!, March 28, 2003
By 
John Mader (Waldorf, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ninth Day (Paperback)
You can't beat this story for keeping your attention. If you look hard enough, you can see the thread of some contemporary human problems addressed. The characters are what hold you and the story line can make you think (even if it does hurt your brain). But the ending puts the capstone to the book. It was unexpected...who are these people of the future, anyway? Even in the future, all is not what it seems and what we think we know about ourselves may not be what we need to know.
