So a small team is assembled to learn more - perhaps even who built the hole and why. Their mission will take them on a hazardous trek to the very edge of existence.\n \n For one explorer, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. For another, a risk not worth taking. And for xenobiologist Alex Crichton, it's a desperate attempt to find meaning in an uncaring universe. But every step they take towards that mysterious abyss is more punishing than the last. Ultimately, no one is prepared for what they will encounter.","brand":"BOOKSITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40833125286003,"sku":"9781035001125","price":323.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2291\/7991\/files\/9781035001125.webp?v=1684846382"},{"product_id":"9781035001132","title":"Fractal Noise","description":"Fractal Noise is a compelling story of first contact and a gripping standalone prequel to the To Sleep in a Sea of Stars - by internationally bestselling author Christopher Paolini.Humanity is not alone . . . 25 July 2234: The crew of the Adamura discovers an anomaly on an uninhabited planet.They find a circular pit, fifty kilometres wide, its curve not of nature but design.
