He feeds off it and carefully nurtures it in order to feed it to the public. It is inevitable that Chalk should home in on Minner Burris, a space traveler whose body was taken apart by alien surgeons and then put back together again--differently. Burris' pain is constant. And so is that of Lona Kelvin, used by scientists to supply eggs for one hundred children and then ruthlessly discarded.Only an emotional vampire like Chalk can see the huge audience eager to watch a relationship develop between these two damaged people. And only Chalk can make it happen. Nº de ref. del artículo: 2148587889

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. In a world where humanity has colonized the solar system and begun to explore more of the local galaxy, a vast audience follows real-life stories presented by wealthy media mogul Duncan Chalk. To satisfy his audience's voyeuristic needs?and his own appetite for others' pain?he pairs Minner Burris, an emotionally withdrawn space explorer who was captured and freakishly surgically altered by aliens, with Lona Kelvin, a suicidal seventeen-year-old girl who donated eggs for a fertility experiment that produced one hundred babies, none of whom she has been allowed to adopt or even see. Chalk promises to solve their personal problems in return for a joint performance tour. Though the love affair doesn't last, Chalk keeps the couple on the hook by making new offers. While Minner and Lona struggle to cope with their newfound celebrity and Chalk's broken promises, they will uncover the true nature of their manipulator?and risk everything to regain the humanity that has been stolen from them . . .

Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. 1st pr. Book is square, solid, and very plausibly unread with only two flaws: former owner's name inside the cover, and along the joint of cover/spine, a spidery-thin line indicating that the cover, at least, was at one time opened. When you receive this beauty youll tuck it into the zip pocket of your speedsuit, flip your glimmer shades to high-res, and hop into your id-shifter, all systems set to quantum-overdrive, headed for the far reaches of the solar system with your inner frequency set to - you guessed it The Dark Side of the Moon.' In protective archival bag! NOTE: The book is also age-toned, predictably enough. Nº de ref. del artículo: 038354
