O ovoj e-knjizi

Destiny Times Three presents a fascinating exploration of the concept of multiple realities and potential futures. The narrative unfolds as the story of Joel Latham, a physicist who discovers a method of viewing alternate versions of the future. In this novel, the Earth is on the brink of destruction due to a series of atomic explosions. Joel, along with his wife and close friend, decides to use his invention to glimpse into various potential futures. What they find are three distinct futures, each with its own set of circumstances and outcomes. The first future is one where humanity has destroyed itself, resulting in a desolate and barren Earth. The second future is dominated by a totalitarian regime, and the third future is a utopian society where humanity has evolved to a higher level of consciousness and peace. Joel and his companions are faced with a moral and existential dilemma. They must decide which future to choose and work towards, knowing that their decision will have profound implications for the fate of humanity. The novel delves into the complex nature of destiny, free will, and the power of human choice. "Destiny Times Three" is a thought-provoking tale that challenges conventional notions of time, destiny, and human agency. It prompts readers to reflect on the choices we make and the potential impact those choices can have on the trajectory of our lives and the world around us.

O autoru

Fritz Leiber (1910-1992) was a towering figure in speculative fiction, whose work spanned the realms of science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Born in Chicago, Leiber was the son of Shakespearean actors, which imbued him with a deep appreciation for drama and storytelling from an early age. He initially pursued a career in acting and theology before turning to writing, a decision that would leave an indelible mark on the literary world.Leiber's most enduring creation is the sword-and-sorcery duo Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, characters who redefined the fantasy genre with their blend of swashbuckling adventure and psychological depth. His stories often explored themes of existential dread, urban alienation, and the supernatural, making him a pioneer in blending horror with science fiction.Controversially, Leiber's work sometimes delved into the darker aspects of human nature, challenging the moral binaries often found in genre fiction. His novel "The Big Time" won the Hugo Award and is celebrated for its innovative take on time travel and war.Leiber's influence extends to contemporary writers like Neil Gaiman and George R.R. Martin, who have cited his work as a significant inspiration. He was also a key figure in the development of the "New Wave" science fiction movement, which sought to elevate the genre through literary experimentation and social commentary.A master of atmosphere and a keen observer of the human condition, Fritz Leiber remains a seminal figure whose revolutionary ideas continue to resonate with readers and writers alike. His legacy is a testament to the power of speculative fiction to explore the complexities of existence.
