What to expect
'Polymathic, visionary brilliance' - FINANCIAL TIMES
Winner of the 2013 Nebula Award for Best Novel
The year is 2312. Scientific advances have opened gateways to an extraordinary future. Earth is no longer our only home; new habitats have been created throughout the solar system, on moons, planets and in between. But in 2312, a sequence of events will force humanity to confront our past, present and future.
The first event takes place on Mercury, in the city of Terminator, itself a miracle of engineering on an unprecedented scale. For Swan Er Hong, it will change her life. Once a designer of worlds, now Swan will be led into a plot to destroy them.
2312 is a bold vision of humanity's future and a compelling portrait of those individuals who will shape its events.

Critics Review
-
This is a grand tour of an intensely imagined interplanetary future of modified human beings, terraformed planets, experiments in economics and sociology and hundreds of other delights. All of it is in Robinson’s eloquent, enthusiastic and inimitable prose
-
A feast for the imagination and intellect – shockingly clever
-
In his vibrant, often moving new novel, “2312,” Robinson’s extrapolation is hard-wired to a truly affecting personal love story. […] Perhaps Robinson’s finest novel, “2312” is a treasured gift to fans of passionate storytelling; readers will be with Swan and Wahram in the tunnel long after reaching the last page.
