Beschreibung

On his fourteenth birthday, right before his eyes, <b>Chen's parents are incinerated by a blast of ball lightning.</b> Striving to make sense of this bizarre tragedy, <b>he dedicates his life to a single goal: to unlock the secrets of this enigmatic natural phenomenon</b>. His pursuit of ball lightning will take him far from home, across mountain peaks chasing storms and deep into highly classified subterranean laboratories as he slowly unveils a new frontier in particle physics.<p>Chen's obsession gives purpose to his lonely life, but it can't insulate him from the real world's interest in his discoveries. He will be pitted against scientists, soldiers and governments with motives of their own: <b>a physicist who has no place for moral judgement</b> in his pursuit of knowledge; a beautiful <b>army major obsessed with new ways to wage war</b>; a desperate nation facing certain military defeat.</p><p>Conjuring <b>awe-inspiring new worlds</b> of cosmology and philosophy from meticulous scientific speculation, <i>Ball Lightning</i> has <b>all the scope and imagination</b> that so enthralled readers <b>of Cixin Liu's award-winning Three-Body trilogy</b>.</p>
