Sinossi
A band of immortals recruit a new member, the brilliant Cherokee physicist Sequoya Guess. Dr. Guess, with the group's help, gains control of Extro, the super-computer that controls all mechanical activity on Earth. They plan to rid Earth of political repression and to further Guess's researches-which may lead to a great leap in human evolution to produce a race of supermen. But Extro takes over Guess instead and turns malevolent. The task of the merry band suddenly becomes a fight in deadly earnest for the future of Earth.

Previously serialised in slightly different form under the title 'The Indian Giver' in Analog Science Fiction/Science Fact, November, December 1974 & January 1975. Also published under the title 'Extro':- Synopsis: A band of immortals - as charming a bunch of eccentrics as you'll ever come across - recruit a new member, the brilliant Cherokee physicist Sequoya Guess. Dr Guess, with the group's help gains control of Extro, the super-computer that controls all mechanical activity on Earth. They plan to rid Earth of political repression and to further Guess's researches - which may lead to a great leap in human evolution to produce a race of supermen. But Extro takes over Guess instead and turns malevolent. The task of the merry band suddenly becomes a fight in deadly earnest for the future of Earth. Sequoya Guess, whom they love, must be killed. But how do you kill an immortal?:- Review(s): "Bester writes with wit and energy, and he is unendingly inventive. The treatment of ideas in 'The Computer Connection' is unique, as is its social consciousness and satire" - Bookletter / "Alfred Bester was, and remains, long after his passing, the preeminent Class Act of imaginative literature. Bester was the mountain, all the rest of us merely climbers toward that peak" - Harlan Ellison:- (original cost $6.99). Codice articolo 15.099.00010
