Description

Book Description

Sri Kanda, the Sacred Mountain, was the holiest place in the ancient land of Taprobane. It was also the only possible site for the most daring feat of engineering in Man's history. Vannevar Morgan's visionary dream would link Earth to the stars - if a million technical problems could be solved - if rival nations could be persuaded to cooperate - if the money could be found - and if the ages-old order of monks atop Sri Kanda would allow their sanctuary to be profaned forever.
