The Wheel of Ice
(Stephen Baxter) |
|
On the Back Cover:
 The Wheel. A ring of ice and steel turning around
a moon of Saturn, and home to a mining colony supplying
a resource-hungry Earth. It's a bad place to grow up.
The colony has been plagued by problems. Maybe it's
just gremlins, just bad luck. But the equipment failures
and thefts of resources have been increasing, and there
have been stories among the children of mysterious creatures
glimpsed aboard the Wheel. Many of the younger workers
refuse to go down the warren-like mines anymore. And
then sixteen-year-old Phee Laws, surfing Saturn's rings,
saves an enigmatic blue box from destruction.
Aboard the Wheel, the Doctor, Jamie and Zoe find
a critical situation - and they are suspected by some
as the source of the sabotage. They soon find themselves
caught in a mystery that goes right back to the creation
of the solar system. A mystery that could kill them all. |
