Podrobnosti o e‑knize
Imprisoned on a planet colony, a people struggle to survive in this dystopian fantasy from the author of the sci-fi classic The Stainless Steel Rat.
Wheelworld is the second visionary volume in Harry Harrison’s phenomenal To the Stars trilogy.
An unforgiving planet where the sun is about to rise and will not set for another four years; where an ancient peasant hierarchy still rules a society equipped with the highest technology; where the people are as dependent on visiting ships as they are on the very air that they breathe; home for some, but for Jan Kulozki it is an eternal prison.
And when the ships don’t come, Jan finds himself at the center of an epic struggle for power . . . and survival.
“Harrison’s fictions constitute one of the main monuments in modern SF.” —Paul Di Filippo, SciFi.com
