Rama II

In the year 2130 Rama, a mysterious and apparently abandoned alien spaceship, entered our solar system. Inside were wonders no one could have imagined -and questions no one could answer.
Now it's 2200, and the Ramans have returned. But this time, as a second alien ship approaches, Earth is ready, and desperate for those answers…
"Rama II" is an enthralling sequel, as brilliantly imagined as its predecessor, "Rendezvous with Rama".

Years after the appearance in the solar system of the immense, deserted spaceship, Rama, a second craft arrived, destined to become home for a group of human colonists. But now the colony has become a brutal dictatorship, terrorizing its own inhabitants. Nicole Wakefield, condemned to death for treason, has escaped to New York. There she is reunited with her husband, but pursuit is not far behind and they are forced to flee to the subterranean corridors of New York inhabited by the menacing octospiders. So begins the greatest adventure of the Rama cycle, a story of massive scope and extraordinary revelations.

In the year 2130 a mysterious spaceship, Rama, arrived in the solar system. It was huge, but empty - apparently abandoned. By the time Rama departed for its next unknown destination many wonders had been uncovered, but few mysteries solved. Only one thing was clear: everything the enigmatic builders of Rama did, they did in threes. Eighty years later the second alien craft arrived in the solar system. This time, Earth had been waiting. Now Rama II is on its way out of the solar system. Aboard it are three humans, two men and a woman, left behind when the expedition departed. Ahead of them lies the unknown, a voyage no human has ever experienced. And at the end of it may lie the truth about Rama.

Humanity has a second date with destiny...

RENDEZOUS WITH RAMA is hailed not only as one of Arthur C. Clarke's all-time bestselling novels, but as one of the most popular classics of modern science fiction.

By the end of the novel, many wonders had been uncovered but few of its mysteries had been solved...
