About This Book

From the back cover of Bantam paperback December 1990: THE RAMANS ARE BACK... Years ago, the enormous, enigmatic alien spacecraft called Rama sailed trough our solar system as mind-boggling proof that life existed -- or had existed -- elsewhere in the universe. Now, at the dawn of the twenty-third century, another ship is discovered hurtling toward us.
