A Stone's Throw

Autor Ken Wisman
en Limba Engleză Paperback
A Stone's Throw: Discovered in an Alpine glacier in the year 2046, Stone, a Neandertal, is brought back to life by nano-technology and secretly taken to the U.S. to be raised by a Massachusetts family and acclimated to a modern world. Odie, a boy isolated by his extraordinary intellect and debilitating disease, befriends Stone and these two misfits form an unbreakable bond born of their uniqueness. When Odie discovers that Stone can throw a baseball 107 miles per hour, he brings the Neandertal to a Red Sox tryout where he earns a spot in a high-tech training camp. While Stone is being conditioned, further investigation of the Niederjoch Glacier reveals twenty-five more members of his clan entombed in the ice. Thus Stone finds himself pitching to earn enough to free his family and regenerate them. With Odie's aid and acumen, Stone fights against time and a glacier rapidly melting in a world of rising temperatures, against the moralist groups opposed to regenesis, and against a world that is less than welcoming of the singular and unique. A Stone's Throw: A story about science and Neandertals and baseball; a story of survival, of friendship, and love.
