The 21st century was on the brink of nuclear confrontation when the 300 kilometer-long stone flashed out of nothingness and into Earths orbit. NASA, NATO, and the UN sent explorers to the asteroids surface...and discovered marvels and mysteries to drive researchers mad.For the Stone was from space--but perhaps not our space it came from the future--but perhaps not our future and within the hollowed asteroid was Thistledown. The remains of a vanished civilization. A human--English, Russian, and Chinese-speaking--civilization. Seven vast chambers containing forests, lakes, rivers, hanging cities...And museums describing the Death the catastrophic war that was about to occur the horror and the long winter that would follow. But while scientists and politicians bickered about how to use the information to stop the Death, the Stone yielded a secret that made even Earths survival pale into insignificance.
