Vance, Steve: ASGARD RUN

Roger Griffin´s lifetime dream lay before him. He stood within an immense interstellar vessel that had lain beneath teh Wyoming mountains for millennia. It had remained a virtually impenetrable fortress to the scientific teams that prowled its two-mile-long exterior - until they managed to pry open one door.

Then the dream of scientific discovery became a horrific nightmare as an earthquake awakened the longdormant brain of the malfunctioning spacecraft - and rocked the door shut. Griffin and his fellow survivors franctically tried to escape, but the ship´s computer took steps to rescue itself and exterminate the humans on board.

Suddenly, the newly awakened control room displayed a clock for its terrified inhabitants to see. Its lights blinked on and off, but the message was clear:

Six hours intul lift-off.

Six hours to live.

Six hours to die.
