 Faltiska | Apr 30, 2022 |  Very fun, even though I was expecting the final dramatic conclusion to be the basis for the book after I read the Prologue. I kept waiting for that the whole time. Still, page turner, with lots of imagination. The anger and hatred inherent in the main character was hard for me to stomach, though--I've really become less entertained by violence in the past year.

( ) invisiblecityzen | Mar 13, 2022 | More dated than I expected and too much of the super man for my taste. I chose to read it as surreal and fantastical. In that light it was OK, not requiring me to believe or empathize with the narrative and characters. The Gully-as-everyman and thrown in populism of the conclusion was unwelcome, gratuitous and cheap. He built no movement to overthrow the status quo so why should we believe it would be overthrown by his actions? (  ) mjduigou | Feb 27, 2022 | I thought I was going to like this more then "The Demolished Man" and I was right. While often noted as a precursor to cyberpunk, something I agree with. Reading the story reminded more of the "Expanse" series then William Gibson's early work, most especially the "Scientific People" and J♂SEPH out in the asteroid belt. This is a short classic SF novel everyone who enjoys SF would probably enjoy. ( ) kevn57 | Dec 8, 2021 | Pertany a aquestes col·leccions editorialsContingut aTé l'adaptacióInspirat en
Gully Foyle, Mechanic's Mate 3rd Class, is the only survivor on his drifting, wrecked spaceship. When another space vessel, the Vorga, ignores his distress flares and sails by, Foyle becomes a man obsessed with revenge. He endures 170 days alone in deep space before finding refuge on the Sargasso Asteroid and then returning to Earth to track down the crew and owners of the Vorga. But, as he works out his murderous grudge, Foyle also uncovers a secret of momentous proportions. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
