Containment (Stories of Singularity #2)
The Mining Master of Thebe is all alone... not counting the scavenger drones, foundry nanites, and magtread tractors buzzing across the tiny Jovian moon. So when a spindly tower of rocks mysteriously appears at the pole, it's enough to vex the Mining Master's machine-sourced intelligence like dust trapped in a harvester joint. Reporting it could mean reassignment to the Outer Belt... but probing the mystery further threatens to unlock something that might have been better left... contained.<br /><br /><b><i>Containment</i> is the second of the Stories of Singularity (#1-4),</b> also available as a box set.
