About The Book
«In science fiction there is only a handful of books that stretch the mind — and this is one of them.» — Arthur C. Clarke
In a moving story of sacrifice and triumph, human scientists establish a relationship with intelligent lifeforms — the cheela — living on Dragon’s Egg, a neutron star where one Earth hour is equivalent to hundreds of their years. The cheela culturally evolve from savagery to the discovery of science, and for a brief time, men are their diligent teachers.
Praise for Dragon’s Egg

«Dragon’s Egg is superb. I couldn’t have written it; it required too much real physics.» — Larry Niven
«This is one for the real science-fiction fan.» — Frank Herbert
«Robert L. Forward tells a good story and asks a profound question. If we run into a race of creatures who live a hundred years while we live an hour, what can they say to us or we to them?» — Freeman J. Dyson
