About “The Nano Flower”
Julia Evans, a billionaire and leader of the powerful company Event Horizon, is facing serious challenges. Her husband is missing, and rival companies claim to have obtained advanced technology. She receives an anonymous flower containing DNA far beyond anything on Earth. The flower's origin remains a mystery—could it be an alien message or a farewell from her husband? Greg Mandel is determined to find the answer, but he is not the only one searching. A mercenary, a merchant and his son, an arms dealer, and a courtesan are also involved. As Greg and Julia work to uncover the truth, they realize being first in the race is not enough. The Nano Flower begins to bloom, changing everything. This 1995 novel by Peter F. Hamilton explores the race to understand the flower's origins.
Praise for “The Nano Flower”
“An immaculately imagined and executed near-future world, lush prose, crystal-sharp dialogue . . . unreservedly recommended.”
“Brilliant . . . an epic of ultra-technology, alien contact, and a love story that literally spans the stars.”
“Gratifyingly complex and challenging—indeed, impossible to summarize adequately, what with battles, love stories, vendettas, imponderable aliens, and robust characters: a fine trilogy, sure, but [The Nano Flower is] in a class by itself.”
