Themis Files - Sleeping giants, Waking gods och Only human

Har läst och sedan lyssnat serien Themis Files.

Första boken heter Sleeping giants, andra Waking gods och tredje Only human. Böckerna är skrivna som intervjuer, rapporter och brev eller samtal mellan personer och det är många uppläsare så varje person har sin egen röst. Perfekt att lyssna på ljudbok för den här bokserien. Första boken finns på svenska som
vanlig bok (kom ut 15/8) och e-bok.

Jag gillar verkligen böckerna och berättelsen och det ska bli spännande att se hur det slutar. Gillar hur böckerna ser ut också, snygga!

Första boken börjar med att Rose som liten ramlar ner i ett hål på en jättestor robothand. Finns det fler delar så det ska bli en hel robot? Vem har gjort den från början? Vad ska den användas till? Som vuxen är Dr Rose Franklin expert på det hon hittat och man forskar för att försöka få fram hemligheten med handen.

Sleeping giants
"Deadwood, USA. A girl sneaks out just before dark to ride her new bike. Suddenly, the ground disappears beneath her. Waking up at the bottom of a deep pit, she sees an emergency rescue team above her. The people looking down see something far stranger..."We always look forward. We never look back."That girl grows up to be Dr. Rose Franklyn, a brilliant scientist and the leading world expert on what she discovered. An enormous, ornate hand made of an exceptionally rare metal, which predates all human civilisation on the continent. "But this thing ... it's different. It challenges us. It rewrites history."An object whose origins and purpose are perhaps the greatest mystery humanity has ever faced. Solving the secret of where it came from - and how many more parts may be out there - could change life as we know it."It dares us to question what we know about ourselves."But what if we were meant to find it? And what happens when this vast, global puzzle is complete...?"About everything."

***********************
 Waking gods
"As a child, Rose Franklin made an astonishing discovery: a giant metallic hand, buried deep within the earth. As an adult, she’s dedicated her brilliant scientific career to solving the mystery that began that fateful day: Why was a titanic robot of unknown origin buried in pieces around the world? Years of investigation have produced intriguing answers—and even more perplexing questions. But the truth is closer than ever before when a second robot, more massive than the first, materializes and lashes out with deadly force.

Now humankind faces a nightmare invasion scenario made real, as more colossal machines touch down across the globe. But Rose and her team at the Earth Defense Corps refuse to surrender. They can turn the tide if they can unlock the last secrets of an advanced alien technology. The greatest weapon humanity wields is knowledge in a do-or-die battle to inherit the Earth . . . and maybe even the stars."

 Only human
"We always thought the biggest threat to humanity would come from the outside.We were wrong.As the human race picks up the pieces of destruction left behind, a new world order emerges. New alliances are formed. Old divisions are strengthened. And, with a power struggle fuelled by the threat of mutually assured destruction, nothing is certain.At a time when the world's nations should have been coming together, they have never been more divided.With the human race teetering on the brink of total war, Rose, Vincent and Eva must choose sides. But doing the right thing might mean making the ultimate sacrifice. "
