„Milion nowych dni” to powiesc, ktorej akcja rozgrywa sie dwa wieki pozniej, i w ktorej pewien wierny malzonek zostaje uwiklany w biologiczny eksperyment zwiazany z konsekwencjami niesmiertelnosci. Powiesc ciekawie napisana, niemal sensacyjna, ale wartka akcja to nie jest jej jedyny walor. Ciekawe jest rowniez tlo, w ktorym rzecz sie dzieje. Autor wykazuje sie wieloma nowymi, swiezymi pomyslami na temat, jak moze wygladac codzienne zycie za dwiescie lat. Taki np. klucz hotelowy wysylajacy impulsy dzialajace na fluoryzujace pod ich wplywem strzalki na scianach korytarzy, i w ten sposob wskazujace droge do wlasnego pokoju, moglby byc stosowany juz...

When the young son of Elizabeth Lindstrom, the autocratic president of Starflight, falls to his death, Vance Garamond, a flickerwing commander, is the obvious target for Elizabeth’s grief and anger. She is not a forgiving employer and Garamond has no choice but to flee. But fleeing Elizabeth’s wrath means leaving the Solar System behind for ever and hiding somewhere in deep space. Pursued remorselessly by Earth’s space fleet, the ‘somewhere’ that Garamond discovers in an unimaginably vast, alien-built, spherical structure which could just change the destiny of the human race. Orbitsville ranks alongside Larry Niven’s Ringworld and Arthur C. Clarke’s Rendezvous with Rama as one of the great imaginative constructs of SF. Deftly written, it powerfully conveys the...

First published in 1971 as Ground Zero Man, this novel was revies by the author and published in 1985 as The Peace Machine. It is 1988, and an obscure scientist, Lucas Hutchman, has made a momentous discovery. He can build a neutron resonator: a device which, once triggered, will detonate every nuclear warhead in the planet. In a future on the brink of nuclear suicide (Damascus has just been wiped out by a terrorist nuclear bomb), the temptation is irresistible to use his invention as a gun held against the heads of the world’s leaders. Lucas constructs the machine, and then sends plans to prominent scientists and politicians everywhere, giving a deadline on which he will activate it. They will be forced to dismantle their weapons, and the world will breathe again. Very quickly,...

The invention of a cheap and easy-to-use antigravity harness revolutionises society. Humanity takes to the skies in its millions, with huge resultant problems for governments and police. Virtually all aircraft are grounded, because of the risk of collision with a stray flyer. Airborne delinquents and criminals are practically impossible to control and can be lethal. Robert Hasson is a good policeman. But a near-fatal airborne confrontation with a psychopath has left him shattered, both physically and mentally. Sent to Canada to recuperate (and to escape the attentions of a local businessman whose son he has put away), Hasson is a broken man, unable to face human company, haunted by nightmares and certain that he will never again put on an anti-gravity harness. But his Canadian host,...
