There, he and his cohorts are sealed off from the illiterate, irrational, unpredictable "saecular" world, an endless landscape of casinos and megastores that is plagued by recurring cycles of booms and busts, dark ages and renaissances, world wars and climate change. Until the day that a higher power, driven by fear, decides it is only these cloistered scholars who have the abilities to avert an impending catastrophe. And, one by one, Raz and his friends, mentors, and teachers are summoned forth without warning into the unknown. 650 $a Audiobooks. 650 $a Disasters $x Fiction. 650 $a Downloadable audio books. 650 $a Life on other planets $x Fiction. 650 $a Mathematics $x Fiction. 650 $a Monasteries $x Fiction. 650 $a Philosophy $x Fiction. 650 $a Science fiction. 700 $a BBC Audiobooks America. 700 $a Dufris, William. nrt 700 $a Gilbert, Tavia. nrt 700 $a Stephenson, Neal. nrt 700 $a Wyman, Oliver. nrt 856 $u http://wilbor.lib.overdrive.com/ContentDetails.htm?ID=10EA57E8-75E8-4222-A625-23494967C7B4 $3 URL 941 $a 2 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20110309011018.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20101023011148.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0E950FFEDE6B11DF9C83A1F56AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
