Swarm Rising: Book 1

Product Information

Interesting and thought-provoking reflection of what is means to be human and individuality (from point of view of an alien). Just when Danny clocks that Adi is not a teenage girl who likes the same computer games as him, she kidnaps him, “prints” herself a body and reveals she’s part of “the Swarm” – an alien race that gave up their physical form millions of years ago, and now travels through space as a single hive mind of intelligence.

If this is the first time you used this feature, you will be asked to authorise Cambridge Core to connect with your Google Drive account. It is rare to find a middle grade sci-fi piece of this complexity though, and budding sci-fi fans will be fascinated by this. Major Timothy Nigel "Tim" Peake CMG (born 7 April 1972) is a British Army Air Corps officer, European Space Agency astronaut and a former International Space Station (ISS) crew member.Conditional measurements of the velocity field downstream of the bubbles in the vertical direction allow us to disentangle three regions that have specific statistical properties, namely the primary wake, the secondary wake and the far field. When Danny is kidnapped by Adi – who can run through brick walls and make cars drive on water – he realises that all humans are in danger. They cover everything from radio astronomy and biosynthesis to computing and quantum physics, and there’s even a glossary of “science stuff” at the back to help.
