The HUGO and NEBULA AWARD-winning novel. 

In the year 2100, the invention of the Electron Pump - an apparently inexhaustible supply of free energy - has enabled humanity to devote its time and energies to more than the struggle for survival, finally breaking free of the Earth. 

But the Electron Pump works by exchanging materials with a parallel universe, and such unbalancing of the cosmos has consequences. Humans and aliens alike must race to prevent a vast nuclear explosion in the heart of the Sun - and the vaporisation of the Earth exactly eight minutes later. . .

Isaac Asimov (1920-1992) was one of the most famous, honoured and widely read science fiction authors of all time. Born in Russia but raised in the USA, his career as an SF writer began in 1939 with 'Marooned Off Vesta', in AMAZING STORIES. His output was prolific by any standards - in a career spanning five decades, he wrote more than four hundred books, won six HUGOs, two NEBULAs and the SFWA GRAND MASTER AWARD, among many others, and provided pleasure and insight to millions of readers. He died in 1992 at the age of 72.
