The Ministry for the Future is a masterpiece of the imagination, using fictional eyewitness accounts to tell the story of how climate change will affect us all. Its setting is not a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, but a future that is almost upon us - and in which we might just overcome the extraordinary challenges we face.

Great ideas, uneven narration

Horrible reader - the Swiss now have an indian-english accent??

Decent story, about what to expect from a Kim Stanley Robinson book, bit dry at times.

By the middle of the 21st century, humanity has managed to overcome a series of catastrophic events and maintain some sense of stability. Space exploration has begun again. Science has led the way. But then one day, the sun goes out. Solar panels are useless, and the world begins to freeze. Earth begins to fall out of its orbit. The end is nigh. Someone has sent us a sign.

Worst Baxter so far

..that I’ve read or listened to.
Interesting premise but it only gets worse after the initial chapters.
Not sure what happened to his storytelling but it’s not on a level as with his previous novels.

Fäng ganz gut an..

..aber lässt dann leider stark nach. Die Känguruh-Kurzgeschichten find wir allesamt super, nur als Romanschreiber hat sich der Autor mit diesem Werk leider kein Ruhmesblatt verdient. Die letzten Kapitel haben wir letztendlich übersprungen, das die Geschichte im Kontrast zum ideenreichen Anfang recht uninteressant wird..

On the planet of Per Ardua, alien artifacts were discovered - hatches that allowed humans to step across light-years of space as if they were stepping into another room. But this newfound freedom has consequences. As humanity discovers the real nature of the universe, a terrifying truth comes to light: We all have countless pasts converging in this present - and our future is terrifyingly finite. There are minds in the universe that are billions of years old, and now we are vulnerable to their plans for us.

..maybe skip part 2 for the next mini-series?
Revisado: 06-19-18
First off: I like many of S. Baxter's books and really hope there's much more to come.
However, to me it seems to be a theme with him that the first book quite brilliantly narrates a story often with a unique theme - only to be followed up by a *much* weaker sequel.
Ultima is one of these sequels (much like Flood - Ark, Time's Eye - Sunstorm, ..) that is way less intriguing than the original book of the mini-series. I'd much rather have him write *1* brilliant book ("The Light of Other Days"!) - and just stop there.. instead of diluting the overall impression with a much weaker sequel.
Just my 2 cents, though - hope you'll enjoy your Baxter lecture!
