Things are going to be very different now. Sisters matter more than daughters. Ignorance is strength. Listen to your sisters. As the light of the Roman Empire gutters and fails one woman begins a remarkable quest to protect her family. It is a quest that will last 2000 years and threaten everything we know.
In present-day England George Poole is looking for his long-lost sister. It is a search that will take him to Rome and into the heart of an ancient secret: a secret that holds a terrifying truth for all our futures. Whether telling the vivid story of a dying Empire, charting the compelling history of a city, or detailing chilling evolutionary possibilities for mankind, Coalescent is never less than an enthralling piece of storytelling. Following his landmark work Evolution, Coalescent is proof positive that Stephen Baxter is perhaps the most important SF writer of his generation.
