Saturn Run by John Sandford and Ctien
Sandy peered at the piece of paper in his hand, as if he were having trouble reading it, and said, “The computer said there’s a critical anomaly. It says there is an object approaching Saturn, that it is real, that it is kilometers long and across, that its spectra is UV-rich-hot, and that it is emitting hydrogen. Oh yeah, it’s decelerating, and it will achieve Saturn orbit in thirteen hours.”
The Chinese are all set for a mission to Mars when a strange object is seen approaching Saturn. They immediately change their focus from Mars to Saturn. The United States must do everything they can if they want to arrive at Saturn before the Chinese. THE RACE IS ON!
This is definitely my favourite book so far this year. I love massive science-fiction based novels. This one was rich in science (not that I understood any of it), rich in characters, plot and humour, and was undeniably a thrilling read. You don’t have to be a lover of science fiction to enjoy this novel; you just have to be a lover of a great novel.
