Wormhole
Just finished reading "Wormhole" by Keith Brooke and Eric Brown, published by Angry Robot Books.
Eric Brown is relatively a "new" author for me. I discovered him several years ago when his novel "Binary System" was released several years ago by Solaris Books. I greatly enjoyed "Binary System" because it reminded me of the works of Mary Gentle, Andre Norton, C.J. Cherryh, Isaac Asimov, and Murray Leinster. So when I learned that "Wormhole" was being released, I eagerly ordered it through Amazon.
For those who came in late, Amazon banned me for posting reviews on their site because I gave a one-star review to an anti-Semitic book years ago. So no, lol, I don't receive compensation from Amazon for mentioning where I buy books, DVDs, and CDs.
Now I'm not really familiar with Keith Brooke's previous books, but I'll will try to seek out some of his other works.
"Wormhole" is an engrossing, twisty science-fiction mystery. London-based cold case Detective Inspectors Gordon Kemp and Danni Bellini find themselves suddenly pulled off all their investigations. Kemp and Bellini are asked to conduct an interview with Sir Alistair Fairleigh-White, the brother of a scientist who was murdered 80 years ago before the departure of the Strasbourg - a starship that was believed to have been destroyed on its way to Carrasco - an Earth-like planet discovered in orbit around Mu Arae. Actually not only do Kemp and Bellini learn that the Strasbourg actually wasn't destroyed, but among the crew in suspended animation is the prime murder suspect, Rima Cagnac - who can now be brought back to Earth due to another secret technological advance - a quantum matrix that can generate a wormhole. Only the truth is not what Kemp and Bellini are being led to believe, and Kemp finds himself on a mission to Carrasco to arrest Cagnac. Only the natives of Carrasco might throw more then a spanner into the works.
Classic science fiction adventure!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
