Description
Maleficos non patieris vivere. “Thou shall not suffer a witch to live.” History's greatest heretic, burned at the stake in 1600. How did he trigger a message from 253 light-years away? More importantly…why? The Vatican's astronomer-priests train instruments on an alien planet 253 light-years distant ... only to receive a message about Giordano Bruno, a Dominican friar the Roman Inquisition condemned to burn at the stake in 1600. From the Vatican Secret Archives to a space observatory, spies and agents of the Church, governments and the New Atheism Movement engage in a deadly competition to be the first to decode Bruno's long-held secret! PRAISE FOR MARK DAVIS'S DARWIN'S ARROW “Darwin's Arrow is that rarest of all animals -- a first-rate thriller that also manages to be a provocative novel of ideas.” -- Josh Gilder, author of Ghost Image “Darwin's Arrow is hard science fiction with an intensely human touch. Davis's writing is vivid, smart and memorable. A tremendous read.” -- Michael Dobson, co-author of MacArthur's War and Fox on the Rhine
