Stephanie Bronson thought she might have found a distant supernova. Instead, what she'd found was something more than a thousand miles across, moving towards the Sun at almost a third the speed of light from the constellation of Lupus, the Wolf. Even more frightening, the object--called Fenrir, after the Norse Wolf of the World's End--was slowing down. It was not a comet or even a rogue planet. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt was an alien vessel. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnd despite the increasingly detailed and insistent messages of greeting from Earth, it showed no sign of responding. As the world braced itself for the arrival of the immense, frighteningly silent alien visitor, Stephanie held hope that they still might communicate with \u003ci\u003eFenrir\u003c\/i\u003e--until something happened that no one had imagined: \u003ci\u003eFenrir\u003c\/i\u003e flared and its drive died, leaving the huge ship careening out of control to a fiery death inside the orbit of Venus. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThere was--just possibly--a chance for Earth to act--to rescue the now-shipwrecked \"Fens.\" But even Stephanie--or those trying to stop her and the rescue ship \u003ci\u003eCarpathia\u003c\/i\u003e--could not imagine that not merely the fate of the aliens, but that of Earth itself, would be decided by \u003ci\u003eFenrir\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEric Flint\u003c\/b\u003e was the creator of the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebest-selling Ring of Fire series, the best-selling alternate history series of all time.
