À propos de cet e-book
In this dystopian fantasy from the author of the sci-fi classic The Stainless Steel Rat, a man joins forces with rebels to battle an oppressive regime.
The first volume in Harry Harrison’s epic To the Stars Trilogy, Homeworld is a stark and compelling vision of the future.
Homeworld is heaven on Earth.
If you don’t ask questions . . .
Homeworld is stable at last, hundreds of years after the collapse of the 20th Century economy. For the millions of proles, life is still a grim ordeal, but for the lucky few, like Engineer Jan Kulozik, there is every kind of luxury. Except one. On Homeworld, where everything and everyone is monitored by the faceless power of government, there is no freedom.
Jak Kulozik knew nothing of the Resistance; he probably didn’t want to. But suddenly, he is part of it. And running for his life . . .
“Harrison’s fictions constitute one of the main monuments in modern SF.” —Paul Di Filippo, SciFi.com
