On July 26, Europa vanishes. Not hidden. Not destroyed. Simply gone.
Months later, a new geological feature appears in Death Valley—one that shouldn’t exist. Nearby, a dying visitor brings a warning: Earth’s time is running out. Around the world, impossible phenomena multiply—mountains rise overnight, mysterious lights dance among the asteroids, and the planet itself begins to tremble.
As humanity scrambles for answers, some seek salvation in faith, others in science. A select few whisper of an escape plan, but who will be saved—and who will be left behind to witness the end?
A gripping fusion of hard science and human emotion, Greg Bear’s The Forge of God is a doomsday epic that will leave you breathless. Nominated for the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus Awards.
