Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. The marvelous sci-fi classic of a postapocalyptic future without electricity or thinking machines, in an all-new edition! Part memoir, part historical commentaryand all a thought-provoking, ambiguous chronicle of a future packed with heroism, duplicity, and the grand actions of men in momentous times.Our World Turned Upside DownIt is the twenty-sixth century, and the world is a very different place. Gone are the United States and Canada, replaced by the socially rigid, authoritarian Confederacy of the Yukon. Gone is the electronic agedestroyed in the apocalyptic Storm Times, which devastated the globe and decimated the worlds population in the late twenty-first century. It is now, once again, an age of steam, an age of lighter-than-air craft, an age of feudalism and knighthood, an age of conquest.Isaac Prophet Fitzpatrick, Consul and Supreme Commander of the Yukon Confederacy, is tall, handsome, dashing and noble. Hes also the man who conquered the world in the name of the Yukonsand destroyed half of humanity in the process.Fitzpatricks closest companion, Sir Robert Mayfair Bruce, elevated from the ranks and brought into Fitzpatricks inner circle, owed everything to his mentor and commander. Yet some call the memoir Bruce left behind the work of a lying traitor. Perhaps its author was indeed a disloyal and degenerate scoundrel.Or maybe he was the only man brave enough to tell his world the truth.With a two-page, full-color frontispiece spread of the gorgeous first edition cover art by Tom Kidd.As Bruce's tale unfolds, the author skillfully demonstrates how fallible men become heroes through a deliberate distortion of their deeds. The author's ability to suggest an entire culture from a few telling details makes this an engrossing read.Library JournalJudsons use of the twin viewpoints allows him to make points about subjects as diverse as history and heroes, academia and ambition, love and shame. Yet like Heinlein, Asimov and other great writers in the genre, Judson never lets his message get in the way of the story.Publishers Weekly Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
