A time of flux, a time of change. While mankind is adjusting to its first ever encounter with an alien civilisation - the Byrzaens - black ops specialist Jim Leyton reluctantly allies himself with the mysterious habitat in order to rescue the woman he loves. This brings him into direct conflict with his former employers: the United League of Allied Worlds government.Here's the cover and synopsis for Ian Whates sequel to The Noise Within, The Noise Revealed. I read The Noise Within a month or so ago (review coming soon!) and thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to any space opera fan, it really is a hugely enjoyable novel. The synopsis here makes this a very highly anticipated book for 2011 and I'll be reading it as soon as I can :)
Scientist and businessman Philip Kaufman is fast discovering there is more to the virtual world than he ever realised. Yet it soon becomes clear that all is not well within the realm of Virtuality. Truth is hidden beneath lies and there are games being played, deadly games with far reaching consequences.
Both men begin to suspect that the much heralded 'First Contact' is anything but first contact, and that a sinister con is being perpetrated with the whole of humankind as the victim. Now all they have to do is prove it.
As for the cover, well, it's pretty stunning. I'm a big fan of covers like this that depict a scene from the book, I think it makes the world of difference compared to other, more mundane covers. It's also great to see a nice continuity between books in the same series, something that all publishers should aim to do. Great stuff!

The cover is pretty stunning. Definitely grabs your attention. Thanks your sharing your thoughts on this book.
Reading the Noise Within at the moment and it is great so far. This will go on my must buy list. It would be good if there was a hardback edition.
I do not care whatsoever what the cover of a book looks like. It has no beaering on whether I will read or enjoy the book.
