Download or read book Deathworld "Annotated" Colonization Science Fiction written by Harry Harrison and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-27 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before becoming an editor, Harrison started in the science fiction field as an illustrator, notably with EC Comics' two science fiction comic books, Weird Fantasy and Weird Science. A large number of his early short stories were first published under house pseudonyms such as 'Wade Kaempfert'. Harrison also wrote for syndicated comic strips, creating the 'Rick Random' character. Harrison is now much better known for his writing, particularly his humorous and satirical science fiction, such as the Stainless Steel Rat series and the novel Bill, the Galactic Hero (which satirises Robert A. Heinlein's Starship Troopers). During the 1950s and 60s he was the main writer of the Flash Gordon newspaper strip. One of his Flash Gordon scripts was serialized in Comics Revue magazine. Harrison drew sketches to help the artist be more scientifically accurate, which the artist largely ignored. Not all of Harrison's writing is comic, though. He has written many stories on serious themes, of which by far the best known is the classic novel about overpopulation and consumption of the world's resources Make Room! Make Room! which was used as a basis for the science fiction film Soylent Green (though the film changed the plot and theme). Harrison for a time was closely identified with Brian Aldiss and the pair collaborated on a series of anthology projects. Harrison and Aldiss did much in the 1970s to raise the standards of criticism in the field. Harrison is a writer of fairly liberal worldview. Harrison's work often hinges around the contrast between the thinking man and the man of force, although the "Thinking Man" often needs ultimately to employ force himself.

Download or read book DeathWorld written by Mads Aggerholm and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2015-11-23 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spaceship 'Gateway' is heading for an earth-like planet, which Earthlings have given the working title of ‘New Earth One’. Initially people thought it was an uninhabited world (apart from any possible wildlife), which the billions of people on Earth could take over. So they start to plan an expedition, which will determine whether this planet is suitable for colonisation. But, while studying the planet, they become aware that it has intelligent life and even a modern civilisation. So the purpose of the expedition changes from being a pure takeover to creating contact with the indigenous population and initiating trade cooperation. Jack Lee is a moderately alcoholic psychologist-cum-anthropologist on the expedition. His task is to analyse the social and societal conditions of the people. What Jack finds is an almost paradisiacal world populated by young, healthy and beautiful people, and a society where crime, greed and selfishness do not exist. But as Jack’s investigation uncovers more and more of how the system works, he discovers that the truth is very different. Someone is clearly trying to kill off the entire planet’s population by means of an unimaginable hoax that has already been going on for centuries. But why? Jack and his friend, Boris the computer expert, suddenly have a pretty big job on their hands. And it doesn’t get any easier for them as it gradually dawns on them that the expedition’s real purpose is not quite what they thought...
