Bert Fraden n'avait plus qu'à se trouver une bonne petite planète indépendante, avec un potentiel révolutionnaire suffisant pour qu'un type un peu marie puisse renverser le gouverne-ment local et instaurer le sien à la place. Ensuite, il se la coulerait douce des siècles durant en compagnie de la splendide Sophia O'Hara. SE seule erreur fut de choisir Sangre, la planète aux mille souffrances : tortures, terreur, cannibalisme, élevage de chair humaine. Ce fut une drôle de révolution ! ( ) An odd book in which the protagonist -- a gangster cum revolutionary -- is forced, or so he thinks, to dehumanise himself further and further in order to survive. It is not so much about the ends versus the means as it is about whether the game is worth playing at all. The setting is of the torture porn variety, and I suspect Spinrad was trying to write The Iron Dream when he wrote this. I think that book makes Spinrad's point better, and that he should try to let this one go quietly out of print. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Or had the planet changed him?For the first time in his life, Bart Fraden was afraid. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
