For themselves, their colleagues, and their future.</p><p>Murder on Antarctic ice. A university lecturer's car, found abandoned on a desert road. And the first crewed mission to colonise Mars, remote and vulnerable in the depths of space.</p><p>How far would you go to save the world?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"In the worlds of <em>The Stone Weta</em>, climate science - and women climate scientists - are being erased. They resist in ways that reflect the creatures they embody: some by concealment, some by communication, others by more direct methods. <strong>Octavia Cade weaves a gripping narrative</strong> in which, as tension builds beneath a seemingly calm surface, these very different women take greater and greater risks to keep truth alive when power wants it - and them - dead." --Tim Jones, author of <em>When We Land</em></p><p> </p><p>"A deep, thoughtful, and thrilling science fiction novel set in what feels like a not too distant future. <em>The Stone Wētā</em> feels like <strong>an important and urgent read in today's world</strong>. It is also a compelling and intricately crafted piece of science fiction." --Maria Haskins, https: //mariahaskins.com/2020/03/06/book-review-the-stone-weta-by-octavia-cade/</p><br>
