Beschreibung

Book Two of The Verity Trilogy. While hiding on Mars, Nomia embarks on an audacious plan to free her brothers and sisters from the organic computer of the Nexus, and cripple MynCorp's hold over humanity. To succeed she will need to forge an alliance with the deeply compromised Martian independence movement. The Nexus has disturbed a presence in Verity Space even more insidious than MynCorp machinations. Determined to draw MynCorp into the fray, Mex infiltrates the heart of the corporate behemoth, but unwittingly uncovers a sickening truth. Julienne would give anything to restore her ordered life. Anything except the total cleansing demanded by MyncCorp. On the run, she takes refuge amongst the disenfranchised, scraping an existence in a senile building. Even here, her life is inexorably entwined with Mex's. Drawn and appalled by her emotions, she must decide how far she will go to save him.

Autor

Mark Bowman has spent most of his adult life juggling a passion for football with a career as a medical specialist in the treatment of infertility, in particular IVF.After watching the Socceroos qualify for their first World Cup in 1973 on TV with his father, he spent the next 32 years in torment watching repeated qualification failure every four years, usually from the terraces. In between those big-ticket games, there was little to cheer for internationally and domestically, because while he attended many National Soccer League matches, Mark had no true club to support apart from during the brief existence of Northern Spirit FC.Despite Australian football's successes since 2005 on the world stage and at long last, a club team to support in Sydney FC, Mark has long dreamt about alternative outcomes for the game he loves and has often wondered what might have been, under different circumstances.His late night musings, lateral thinking, love of both anecdotes and football culture more generally, finally came together in The Yawning Giant, which he is quite certain will be his only one and only novel.
