Thor's Hammer (novel)
Thor's Hammer (1983) is the title of two science fiction novels, one by Australian author Wynne Whiteford, about mining in the asteroids, and another (2017) by U.S. author David Rogers, about a future world and a group of people with powers to jump through time and space in search of a better world.
Whiteford describes an attempt by an unbalanced fanatic stationed in the asteroid belt to destroy Earth civilisation by directing an asteroid at Earth. Rogers imagines a world troubled by overpopulation and environmental disaster and suggests what the fate of the human race in such a world may be.[1]
