Galaxy's End

Sun's End #2

by Richard A. Lupoff

TECHNOLOGY'S GREATEST TRIUMPH. HUMANKIND'S LAST HOPE...

Daniel Kitajima was a creature of mind and machine. His artificial limbs were endowed with super-human strength, his perceptual abilities enhanced with telescopic vision, radar and infrared. With proper care, he would live forever - except for one grim inevitable fact...

The Solar System itself was about to be destroyed. The sun was heating up, scorching Earth's deserts and transforming its polar icefields into quagmires. The entire galaxy was in danger. And nothing human could halt the oncoming disaster.

But Daniel Kitajima was not exactly human...

Reviews

[Stephen Rowland · Rating 3 out of 5]

Insane and compelling but obviously meant to be followed by another installment or a conclusion... which does not seem to exist. Frustrating.

I searched for this book to get a conclusion to the first book, "Sun's End." The first book was actually quite interesting. This book was more like a series of short stories crammed together loosely. That may be a bit harsh, but the stories were just not pulling me in. I came to find out what was happening to the main character from the first book and instead, he's being shown other peoples' stories which we have to read through. On top of that, I don't really feel like the series ended. It feels like there's supposed to be another book. Perhaps, I missed something as I finished the last few chapters in boredom.
