Richter 10
and Mike McQuay
Bantam Spectra paperback
Clarke (Rama Revealed, 2001: A Space Odyssey) is joined by McQuay (The Nexus,
Memories) for a near-future thriller. Lewis Crane is a seismologist who lost his family
and home to an earthquake. He's developed his own unique method of earthquake prediction and it
informs him that The Big One, a Richter 10, is on the way. He even knows exactly when and where it will strike--and possibly how to stop
it. Not surprisingly, Crane and his theories are mocked by many and ignored by others. But Crane
has lost everything to a quake before, and this time he'll stop at nothing to avert disaster.
