A major new novel from one of science fiction's most powerful voices, Aurora tells the incredible story of our first voyage beyond the solar system.

Brilliantly imagined and beautifully told, it is the work of a writer at the height of his powers.

Our voyage from Earth began generations ago.

Now, we approach our new home.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"This ambitious hard SF epic shows Robinson at the top of his game... [A] poignant story, which admirably stretches the limits of human imagination."—Publishers Weekly on Aurora
"Intellectually engaged and intensely humane in a way SF rarely is, exuberantly speculative in a way only the best SF can be, this is the work of a writer at or approaching the top of his game."—Iain M. Banks on 2312
"2312 is a monumental tour-de-force that re-imagines the solar system in ways no one has envisioned before. Whether comparing the compositions of Beethoven to those of skylarks and warblers, or describing a life-threatening sunrise on Mercury, Robinson fills 2312 with joy and exuberance, danger and fear, and the steadily mounting suspense of a mystery that spans the planets. This is the finest novel yet from the author who gave us the Mars Trilogy and GALILEO'S DREAM. An amazing accomplishment."—Robert Crais
"Robinson's extraordinary completeness of vision results in a magnificently realized, meticulously detailed future in which social and biological changes keep pace with technological developments."—Publishers Weekly on 2312
" In his vibrant, often moving new novel, 2312, Robinson's extrapolation is hard-wired to a truly affecting personal love story. [...] Perhaps Robinson's finest novel, 2312 is a treasured gift to fans of passionate storytelling; readers will be with Swan and Wahram in the tunnel long after reaching the last page."—LA Times
"Inherently epic stuff... expect interplanetary strife, conspiracies, more big ideas than most SF authors pack into a trilogy... [yet] this is ultimately in so many respects a book about Earth... a wise and wondrous novel"—SFX on 2312

Badly needed light in a world growing darker by the day. Also very entertaing despite the technical detail.

Magnificent!

Interesting concept

Idea is great, however way too much time on statistics, numbers, theories. A little tech background helps create coherence, but you can hear only so many times the organic parts of a healthy soil, or how genetically a closed grpup of people end up by genetically suiciding. And one last thing, please close the story arc loops, too many loose ends.

Good ideas, not so good execution

This book is very clearly written to be pro-China anti-Western anti-space advancement material.

Very disappointing to have a book that is supposed to be about colonizing other worlds to have an extreme left turn 70% through and misuse science to claim it's impossible.

A book only a far right wing conservative could find good.

First and only book I've ever requested to refund. Absolutely refuse to support an author with such horrible political views.

Awful propaganda filled nonsense
