For her instructors in the twenty-first century, it meant painstaking calculations and careful monitoring of the rendezvous location where Kivrin would be received. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut a crisis strangely linking past and future strands Kivrin in a bygone age as her fellows try desperately to rescue her. In a time of superstition and fear, Kivrin -- barely of age herself -- finds she has become an unlikely angel of hope during one of history's darkest hours. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFive years in the writing by one of science fiction's most honored authors, Doomsday Book is a storytelling triumph. Connie Willis draws upon her understanding of the universalities of human nature to explore the ageless issues of evil, suffering and the indomitable will of the human spirit.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53508903502097,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780613922555.jpg?v=1778155802","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-doomsday-book-by-connie-willis","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
