The Repairman [MultiFormat]
by Harry Harrison
|
|
The Mark III Hyperspace Beacon was the earliest type of beacon ever built--by Earth, no less. It was located on one of the Proxima Centauri planets, and it wasn't working. This was one of those jobs when being an interstellar trouble-shooter wouldn't have been so bad--if he could have shot the trouble! A classic science fiction tale from the author of the "Stainless Steel Rat," "Bill the Galactic Hero," and "Eden" series! 1958

by Harry Harrison
|
|
It is the year 1999 and the world has become grimly, terribly overpopulated. This is the premise of Harry Harrison's 1966 novel Make Room! Make Room! and fans of his more comic work may be surprised at this bleak, foreboding novel. But Harrison's purpose in writing this book was serious and his concerns were real. Although his fears thankfully did not become a reality for the inhabitants of New York and the rest of the United States, the novel remains a gripping, thought-provoking work about pri... more info>>
