Synopsis

A new ice age—and a shocking discovery—will change humanity forever.

From the Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author with over FOUR MILLION COPIES sold worldwide comes an epic novel with an unforgettable twist.

* Longlisted for the Wilbur Smith Award for best published novel. *

In the near future, a new ice age has begun.

Humanity stands on the brink of extinction.

Desperate for answers, scientists send probes into the solar system to take readings. Near Mars, they identify a mysterious object moving toward the Sun. Is it the cause of the ice age? Or could it be humanity’s only hope of survival?

With time running out, NASA launches a mission to make contact. But the object isn’t what anyone thought. In the dark of space, alone, the team makes a discovery that will change the course of human history—and possibly end it.

Filled with real science and fascinating details, Winter World is that unique blend of fact and fiction that could completely change how you see our planet—and humanity’s future. For those intrepid souls starting this bestselling trilogy, be warned: you may well be up late into the night turning the pages.

Goodreads review by Anthony on September 06, 2019

Not an enjoyable read, and quite poorly written. I felt like I was forcing myself to finish the latter third of the book just so I could move on to reading something else as quickly as possible. I doubt any other book includes the word “drone” quite as many times as this one either. The book is pres......more

Goodreads review by Pat on February 04, 2020

In a startling about face it looks like I am the odd one out for actually liking this book (even though it rated quite highly). After our months of fires, heatwaves and years of drought I found this story, set in the very near future, about the earth facing a sudden ice age and thought it would make......more

Goodreads review by Andrew on March 23, 2019

Even though I can’t understand how this book has such a high average rating, I have to acknowledge that and recognise that different books appeal to different readers. The problem for me is not the genre. But if you are analytical by nature and enjoy the logical puzzles posed by mystery and detective......more
