Encounter With Tiber

Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin shared perhaps the greatest moment in history when he and Neil Armstrong became the first humans to set foot on another world. Now this renowned futurist teams with Hugo and Nebula Award finalist John Barnes, whom the Washington Post hails as "a major SF writer of the 1990s." Together, they have created one of the most acclaimed, bestselling space sagas of our time. Encounter with Tiber is a 10,000-year epic of a grand quest to explore the stars and the actual ways to make that quest become the next true chapter in history. A mysterious radio beacon from a distant world called Tiber unites scientist/astronaut Chris Terence and visionary entrepreneur Sig Jarlsbourg in a new space race and leads one man to his doom. The same mystery will lure their families to Mars and beyond, seeking the legacy of ancient beings who came to our ancestors in chariots of fire but were too mortal to be gods. A magnificent tapestry of heroic triumphs and tragedies, Encounter with Tiber spans light years and millennia to prove that space is the next challenge of the human spirit, of our eternal need to journey beyond the highest mountain and beyond the farthest shore.
