Airship Nine is a tale rich in technological detail and vision, full of action, passion - and the eerie splendors of the Antarctic. Through their fading radio links connecting them to a dying world devastated by unbridled nuclear war, the men and women of Airship Nine - a new-era passenger-and-cargo blimp - and for those onboard the Soviet supply ship Primorye, the holocaust has suddenly and completely destroyed their homelands. The black clouds of nuclear winter are spreading rapidly across the globe, and their only hope for survival lay in the white ice fields ahead.
"Exciting, riveting, high altitude suspense" by none other than thrill-master Stephen King!
"This sprawling tale is a well-wrought mix of high-tech gee-whizzery, characters plunged into danger both physical and moral, and an old-fashioned adventure story with a surprise ending. Airship Nine is one of those books that holds up well over the years...highly recommended." Author Robert Gandt
"A chilling survival manual" said the London Sunday Telegram.
"Block does a solid job" said the Kirkus Review. "The story is tautly told," said the Pittsburgh Press.
"An exciting science fiction thriller," and "Pure tension in a successful plot," said the German newspapers.
"A timely, thought provoking, suspense-filled story. It is an exciting book," said the Iowa Bookshelf.
Several of the other novels by Block include "Orbit" (a top bestseller in Germany, among other nations), "Airship Nine", "Forced Landing" (also done as a radio serialization drama in Japan), "Skyfall", "Open Skies" and his latest novel, "Captain".
