Simon Morden is an award-winning novelist and scientist with degrees in Geology and Planetary Geophysics. In Bright Morning Star he delivers perhaps his finest work to date.
Sent to Earth to explore, survey, collect samples and report back to its makers, an alien probe arrives in the middle of a warzone. Witnessing both the best and worst of humanity, the AI probe faces situations that go far beyond the parameters of its programming, and is forced to improvise, making decisions that have repercussions for the future of our entire world.
โMorden has a natural talent for a plot that keeps the reader guessing.โ - THE GUARDIAN
