One of my favorite characters from this novel is actually who I call the villain: JBF, the American president. The premise is pretty much: What would happen to the human race if the moon suddenly exploded into multiple chunks, and the debris rained down on Earth? The rest is planning out the survival of the humans, and how to keep them from going extinct. I almost forgot how much that I loved Sci-Fi with all of the Fantasy that I have been reading until I started Seveneves. The premise of Seveneves is one of the most captivating ones that I have experienced in a long while. I read the back cover at a Barnes and Noble and went “ Yup!” I’ll take this one. Seveneves is the introduction to his works for me, and one of the few novels that I picked up without knowing anything about beforehand. Neal Stephenson is an author that I have seen around a lot, and I have always wanted to try out some of his works. In a feverish race against the inevitable, nations around the globe band together to devise an ambitious plan to ensure the survival of humanity far beyond our atmosphere, in outer space.īut the complexities and unpredictability of human nature coupled with unforeseen challenges and dangers threaten the intrepid pioneers, until only a handful of survivors remain. A catastrophic event renders the earth a ticking time bomb.
