Trinidad
by Jorge BaraditNovela que irrumpió el 2007 en la escena española al ganar el PREMIO UPC de ciencia ficción, principal galardón entregado a la literatura de ese género.

Una mercenaria drogadicta, una niña-máquina con inteligencia artificial y una detective son víctimas de un oscuro proyecto donde se despliegan consolas ouijas, conciencias administradas por el gobierno, secuestro de almas, tráfico de médula infantil, cacerías en el ciberespacio y seres que duermen en las entrañas de anacondas. Todo, hilado con la febril imaginación de Jorge Baradit. Una historia que golpea con imágenes alucinantes que mezclan el cyberpunk más clásico con una visión ocultista y chamánica, un nuevo paradigma literario definido, por académicos y entendidos, como cyberchamanismo.

Triplanetary (Lensman Ser. #Vol. 1)
by E. E. SmithE. E. &“Doc&” Smith is often referred to as the father of Space Opera. The Lensman series is considered one of the two greatest science fiction series of all time coming in behind only Asimov&’s Foundation series in its ranking. Here is the exciting first book in that ground breaking series Triplanetary. The Eddorians, a dictatorial, power-hungry race, enter our universe from an alternate space-time continuum after observing our galaxy and its sister galaxy passing through one another. This will result in the formation of billions of planets and the development of life. Dominance over these new life forms would allow the Eddorians to satisfy their lust for power and control. The adventure begins.
Triplanetary (Lensman Ser. #Vol. 1)
by E. E. SmithThe first installment in the groundbreaking Lensman series, one of the greatest space opera sagas of all time Nevia, located many light years from the Earth&’s sun, is running out of iron, the primary source of energy for the planet&’s dominant amphibious race. Armed with technology that can extract iron atoms from anything it encounters—rock, machinery, man-made structures, even human blood—the Nevians set their sights on a rich lode of the precious element: the planet Earth. Descending on its unsuspecting target, the Nevian space-ship destroys the city of Pittsburgh and its defenseless inhabitants before heading home with three human specimens in its hold. Among them is Conway Costigan, an undercover intelligence operative for the Triplanetary Patrol. From deep within the bowels of the enemy ship, Costigan must do the impossible: find a way to defeat the Nevians before every man, woman, and child on Earth is annihilated. Known as the &“father of space opera,&” E. E. &“Doc&” Smith imagined remarkable future worlds and breathtaking intergalactic battles before the heyday of Robert Heinlein and Isaac Asimov, and decades before Star Wars and Star Trek became part of the popular culture. His best-known work, the Lensman series, was one of five finalists for the Hugo Award for Best All-Time Series. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
