Description: "An exciting science fiction thriller that will in turn inform and surprise readers." -- Library Journal , starred review "Thrilling... the focus on Lola''s emotional state and Samael''s struggle not to become a monster add depth to the drama." -- Publishers Weekly "...[T]he stakes of this series have risen exponentially." -- Tor.com "Series fans and readers of speculative thrillers built around actual historical events will eagerly anticipate book three." -- Booklist Praise for A History of What Comes Next : "Sylvain''s Neuvel''s latest genre-bending bit of genius, A History of What Comes Next , is a riveting blend of historical thriller and scientific speculation, which never loses its core of humanity. It''s exciting, thought-provoking, and ultimately shocking in both scope and plotting. It''s the opening gambit in a trilogy that spans decades and promises much more to come. I''m in for the ride to the very end!" --James Rollins "An extraordinary twist on the space race and a paean to what smart, strong women can accomplish. I''m always over the moon for Neuvel''s stories!"--Delilah S. Dawson "Sylvain Neuvel proves once again he deserves the title of the hottest new SF writer of the 21st century -- and this time he does it by looking back at the storied development of rocketry in the 20th. Clever and compelling, with a succession of kick-ass heroines propelling events along via mayhem and murder behind the scenes, A History of What Comes Next blasts off on page one and will keep you enthralled until the end."--Robert J.

I can''t stop thinking about it." -- The Chicago Review of Books "Reminiscent of The Martian and World War Z , Sleeping Giants is a luminous conspiracy yarn that shoots for (and lands among) the stars." --Pierce Brown d this time he does it by looking back at the storied development of rocketry in the 20th.
