Hardback: 9½" x 6¼". Condición: Fine: Very small signs of wear. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. Cover Art: Steve Crisp Ilustrador. 1st Edition. © 1994: A stand-alone novel by John Barnes. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: The Planet: World history thirty years into the future. Population has doubled, the rich are richer, our technological dreams have come true - and Earth's eco-health teeters on the brink. The People: Jesse Callare is an engineering student, full of unrequited love and possessing few qualifications for global hero. Synthi Venture has plugs in her head that record everything she experiences - porn star and entertainment broadcaster, she's close to burn-out. John Krieg, entrepreneur, wanted to push technology along, but discovered the profit in throttling it back. And President Hardshaw, the woman who runs America, is locked in external struggles which mean the first warning signs are not a priority. And the Hurricanes: All their energy comes from the surface of the ocean. The warmer the water, the bigger the storm. And if the percentage area of warm water grows it becomes a 'racetrack' breeding hurricanes that can wipe out whole countries and millions of lives. So what happens when the mother of all storms hits?:- Review(s): "Vivid backdrops (space, offshore rigs in the Caribbean, the cold, hard corridors of power, the feverish offices of news networks, a mythic trek across devastated South American countries and the eye of the storm itself), compelling characters, gripping science and engrossing storytelling - it might be said that John Barnes' new epic has everything. 'Mother Of Storms' is a global disaster novel worthy of a powerful tradition, and a hugely enjoyable SF saga" / "Such zest, energy and intelligence that readers across a wide spectrum of taste will be charmed. Highly entertaining" - Washington Post / "The hallmark of a master. John Barnes knows how to make readers care. A must-read" - Los Angeles Reader / "Filled with ingenious science fictional furniture and peopled with appealing and believable characters who must deal with issues of importance. Barnes blows up a storm" - Locus / "One of the best. And most entertaining examinations of clashing cultures" _ Science Fiction Chronicle / "As dazzling in concept as it is in execution. Original, eye-opening, and all too believable" - Poul Anderson:- (original cost unmarked). Nº de ref. del artículo: 19.002.00038
