{"product_id":"existence-kiln-1","title":"Existence (Kiln)","description":"Bestselling, award-winning futurist David Brin returns to globe-spanning, high concept SF with Existence.\nGerald Livingston is an orbital garbage collector. For a hundred years, people have been abandoning things in space, and someone has to clean it up. But there's something spinning a little bit higher than he expects, something that isn't on the decades' old orbital maps. An hour after he grabs it and brings it in, rumors fill Earth's infomesh about an \"alien artifact.\"\nThrown into the maelstrom of worldwide shared experience, the Artifact is a game-changer. A message in a bottle; an alien capsule that wants to communicate. The world reacts as humans always do: with fear and hope and selfishness and love and violence. And insatiable curiosity.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0765303612\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0765303612.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Brin, David\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
