Unknown Author

4.9/5 (24483 ratings)

Description:Ask Hugo and Nebula-winning science fiction writer Mike Resnick which works out of his scores of novels and hundreds of award-winning shorter pieces does he feel represents his best work. He has two answers, "the next one" (all writers say that) and, more reflectively, he answers "Paradise, Purgatory, and Inferno."Ask any reviewer familiar with Mr. Resnick's astounding and significant additions to the classic literature of speculative fiction over the past 40 years and you get the same two answers--"his next" (because new Resnick books are always eagerly awaited) and, taking your question more seriously, "Paradise, Purgatory, and Inferno." These three novels both entertain and provoke thought on various levels. First and foremost, you'll find satisfying adventure on distant and unique worlds. But are they so different and unique? If you know anything of the history of Africa (and Resnick is an acknowledged expert) you'll find parallels provoking thought and providing understanding. If you know nothing of Africa, you will.Contents: Paradise [Chronicles of Distant Worlds](1989) / novel by Mike Resnick: a Chronicle of a Distant World: Peponi, a distant world rich in wildlife and populated by a people without a high degree of technology, is "discovered" by mankind. Men arrive on the planet, then reap its riches. After years of subjugation, the natives finally begin to push for independence. Purgatory [Chronicles of Distant Worlds] (1993) / novel by Mike Resnick: a Chronicle of a Distant World: On the planet Karimon lives a race of intelligent beings descended from reptiles. Like most intelligent beings in the galaxy, they had not yet evolved beyond their stone-age villages when the first shiploads of Men arrived to stake a claim on a virgin planet. Inferno [Chronicles of Distant Worlds] (1993) / novel by Mike Resnick: a Chronicle of a Distant World: The story of the planet Faligor, which has much in common with Uganda, from colonization to independence..We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
