Singularity - ebook

What if the Tunguska impact of 1908, the “cosmic mystery of the millennium,” was caused by a primordial black hole? What if that object — smaller than an atom, more massive than a mountain, older than the stars — has been orbiting inside the earth? What if only a rookie government agent and a clairvoyant consultant stand in the way of a Russian billionaire wielding that black hole to change history — or end it?

“The level of ingenuity is immense. The characters grabbed me. Singularity is a wonderful, intricate story, wonderfully well told.”

— Larry Niven, Nebula and Hugo award-winning author of Ringworld and The Ringworld Engineers

“Singularity juggles Clancy, Crichton, and The Da Vinci Code. An innovative concept for an end-of-the-world thriller, with convincing research and locomotive pacing.”

— Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author of Dune: Battle of Corrin

“DeSmedt veers an action-packed thriller into perilous realms of black hole physics. The combination of adrenaline and intellect sizzles.”

— David Brin, New York Times bestselling author of The Postman

“Singularity is a swift, gripping novel with a goose-pimple mix of scary science and near-future action. An excellent debut from Bill DeSmedt — and I’ll be looking forward to his next one!”

Greg Bear, Hugo and Nebula awarding winner author of Darwin’s Children
