Pages : 298
Book Description
Independent pilot and sometime berserker hunter Harry Silver is being hounded by the Space Force on suspicion of possession of an illegal, high-powered weapon. To avoid confiscation of his beloved ship the Witch, Harry agrees to a quick evacuation of a trio of refugees from the doomed Hong’s World. Destination – Maracanda, an azlaroc-type body, a curious non-planet where geography seems more like geometry and the soil itself can be a drug. Maracanda’s geography has the attention of berserkers, rogue killer machines programmed to destroy all life, especially human life. With help from ‘goodlife’, the berserkers could turn the strange combination of neutron star, black hole and Maracanda’s extra-ordinary geography into massive galactic destruction. Harry teams with a woman disenchanted with her fanatical husband and an accidentally helpful smuggler acquaintance in an attempt to save the galaxy. A grand military space story with engaging characters and a strikingly original and imaginative setting.

Berserkers The Later Tales
Author: Fred Saberhagen
Publisher: JSS Literary Productions, LLC
ISBN: 1937422151
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Across galactic timelines and landscapes, earth-descended humanity continues the fight against non-living, life hating Berserkers. Along with powerful allies of plants, sea creatures, computerized personalities, mythic men and a fictional detective, life struggles against its unliving foe. In cleaver hands, even the foibles of human personalities can be used against the unliving Berserker foe. Berserkers are automated warships, made by an unknown race to fight in an interstellar war that had been over ages since; they have outlasted their original enemies and their makers as well, having been programmed and equipped to rebuild and reproduce themselves. Still trying to carry out their originally programmed task, they made age-long progress across the spiral arms, leaving nothing living in their wake. This volume of fourteen tales, together with the Berserkers The Early tales, constitute a complete collection of Saberhagen authored Berserker stories. The stories The Bad Machines and Servant Of Death have not appeared previously in any Saberhagen collection.
