Within it there are a vast number of chambers to explore, containing forests, lakes, and rivers. Some chambers even contain deserted cities, and the remains of a lost civilisation. Scientists determined that the Stone was from space... but perhaps not our space; that it came from the future... but perhaps not our future.   While scientists and politicians bicker about how to use their newfound discoveries, the Stone harbours a secret that makes even Earth's survival pale into insignificance.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56292799119733,"sku":"9780575073166","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780575073166_825917d4-b6ed-43a8-9e7b-c92b37860676.jpg?v=1762752075","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780575073166","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
