Resumen del Editor

From the very beginning of his career, Robert Sheckley was recognized by fans, reviewers, and fellow authors as a master storyteller and the wittiest satirist working in the science fiction field. E-Reads is proud to re-publish his acclaimed body of work, with nearly 30 volumes of full-length fiction and short story collections, all with striking new covers. Rediscover - or discover for the first time - a master of science fiction who, according to the New York Times, was "a precursor to Douglas Adams".

Take a look at a dark, deadly future where the game is hunting and the results are killing - human to human - with status, money, power, and sex as the prizes. The operation runs underground and Frank Blackwell is a new recruit who is destined to change the game and turn it into legitimate popular entertainment for the masses.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The key words with Sheckley are clever, deadly, cool.... I don't know anyone else in SF who has written quite so many classic stories." (Spider Robinson)

Unique plot . unputdownable , classic.

This author was one of the first famous sci fi writers that wrote some classics. His early work is brilliant but his later work is atrocious. Rumor is that he indulged in the 60s free love , drug culture and it wiped out his writing talent. Status civilization, deninsions was written and published before Hitchhikers Guide to Universe but has very similar plot and themes. This is one of his good books but status civilization and Demimsions are his best works and 10th victim.

My Favorite Author Falls a LITTLE Short

Any additional comments?

On it's own, this is a great book. The drawbacks can only be seen when comparing it with the rest of the "Victim" trilogy.

Although this is the 3rd, and final, installment in the series, the book takes the route of a prequel to the first two novels. It is all about how "The Hunt" came to be.

This may be interesting for some, but I much preferred reading into a world where The Hunt already existed and was in full force.

Still, if you are a fan of Robert Sheckley's, I'm positive you will enjoy this installment of the series, whether you share my views or not. It IS still a great listen and the narration is done flawlessly.

PS = This is the book in which Sheckley predicted Apple/Mac computers would eventually overtake IBM as the most prominently used platform!


8.50 / 10.0
