A Deepness in the Sky is a science fiction novel by American writer Vernor Vinge. Published in 1999, the novel is a loose prequel (set twenty thousand years earlier) to his earlier novel A Fire Upon the Deep (1992). The title is coined by one of the story's main characters in a debate, in a reference to the hibernating habits of his species and to the vastness of space.

Captivating. Though-provoking

5 stjärnor

It is as good as the first book. Much more than "just a space opera", it offers lots of action coupled with deep pondering over culture, society, and technology. How would you envision a living, biological virus that is able to spread over computer networks?
