El padre de David Storm no aprueba los caballos inusualmente grandes de Angus Morton, calificándolos de blasfemias contra la naturaleza. Poco se da cuenta de que su propio hijo, su sobrina Rosalind y sus amigos, tienen su propia aberración secreta que los etiquetaría como mutantes. Pero a medida que David y Rosalind crecen, se vuelve más difícil ocultar sus diferencias a los ancianos del pueblo. Pronto se enfrentan a una elección: esperar a que los descubran o huir a las aterradoras y mutables Badlands.
Wyndham lumbers his characters with some verbose, pompous speeches about human nature, but his points are still interesting and as relevant today as when he wrote the book in 1955. It's also a ripping adventure.

David's father doesn't approve of Angus Morton's unusually large horses, calling them blasphemies against nature. And blasphemies, as everyone knows, should be burned: KEEP PURE THE STOCK OF THE LORD; WATCH THOU FOR THE MUTANT. Little does he realise that his own son - and his son's cousin Rosalind and their friends - have their own secret aberration which would label them as mutants. And mutants, as everyone knows, should be burned. But as David and Rosalind grow older it becomes more difficult to conceal their differences from the village elders. Soon they face a choice: wait for eventual discovery - and death - or flee to the terrifying and mutable Badlands . . . No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
