The Lucifer Code
“Accosta wiped the glass window beside him and looked down, straining to see the Foundation. He knew the converted oil-rig must be close now but there was no sign of it in the rocky white wasteland below or in the towering mountains on either side of him. Then he glanced up, above the helicopter's churning rotor blades, and saw a glint of weak sunlight on the highest peak.
Peering through the grimy window he could just make out a structure on the flat summit. Supported on eight angled struts, th...e black glass dome resembled an enormous spider squatting on the mountaintop. A satellite dish and a pylon stood beside it and a funnel pushed upwards from its glass skin. Beneath the dome he could just see a vast central pillar rooting the structure deep into the mountain, and housing the old drilling machinery and borehole. Jutting out from one side of the dome, an apron of steel formed a semicircular platform. Accosta's stomach lurched as the helicopter dropped towards it.
It was an early afternoon in October and the light was already fading.MoreLess
