The Other End of Time by Frederik Pohl

June 13, 2011 by Amanda VerMeulen

The Other End of TimeIn 2031, five people are brought together when Earth receives signals with extraterrestrial origins. Dan Dannerman is an operative with the National Bureau of Investigation, and he is sent to discover what his cousin, Dr. Patrice Addock, has been doing with the astrophysical observatory she runs. Three more scientists join this pair as they try to discover the causes of strange data received by the observatory’s Starlab. Looking for alien artifacts with which to get rich, these five instead become prisoners of an alien race. The aliens resemble those in a signal broadcast to Earth, but was the signal a warning, or a trick sent by enemies?
