Opis

Far Field continues the journey begun in A Lesser God, published in 2011by Paul H Deal. The Earth's first emigrant spaceship, carrying 80,000 passengers, is on its way to New Aanland, a cylindrical space habitat in orbit around Far Field, a dwarf planet beyond Pluto's orbit. A group of the emigrants, with high technical competence, find the four year voyage through empty space tedious and decide a detour to some of the solar system's other planets might be more interesting. Using the extraordinary phase-field technology developed by H. P. Devlin, an agent of the extraterrestrial entity, Mi-Ya, along with materials scrounged from the emigrant ship's stores, they fashion three, small, high delta-V spacecraft and head for Mercury. All goes well during visits to Mercury and Venus, but things change when they head for Mars. Shortly after leaving Venus, they encounter an unexpected anomaly that catapults them into a world they never imagined and ultimately into contact with people from their own past. Getting to New Aanland turns out to be anything but a done deal.
