About this book

In this sequel to the multi-award winning science fiction novel Rama, a second Raman spaceship enters the solar system. Years earlier, an enormous alien spacecraft called Rama passed through the solar system, providing evidence that life existed or had existed elsewhere in the universe. Now, in the twenty-third century, another ship is detected approaching Earth. A crew composed of Earth's best minds is assembled to meet the massive vessel. They carry all available knowledge about Raman technology and culture. However, they find themselves unprepared for what awaits them aboard Rama II: cosmic secrets that are startling and potentially dangerous.
