Beschreibung

In "Pursuit," Lester Del Rey crafts a gripping narrative that masterfully intertwines elements of science fiction with psychological exploration. Set in a future where humanity grapples with the implications of technological advancement, Del Rey delves into themes of survival, morality, and the human condition. His distinctive literary style, characterized by vivid imagery and profound character development, invites readers into a world where the boundaries of ethics and personal ambition are constantly tested. The book reflects the anxieties of its time, as societal concerns about technology's pervasive influence resonate within the plot. Lester Del Rey, an influential figure in the realm of science fiction, was no stranger to the challenges posed by rapid technological change. His extensive background as an editor and author of speculative fiction provided him with unique insights into humanity's relationship with technology. Del Rey's personal experiences and intellectual curiosity about the future undoubtedly influenced the thematic depth of "Pursuit," making it a compelling exploration of human nature under duress. I wholeheartedly recommend "Pursuit" to readers who appreciate thought-provoking science fiction that merges thrilling narrative with philosophical inquiry. Del Rey's exploration of ethical dilemmas in an advanced technological society will resonate with anyone interested in the complexity of human choices in the face of relentless progress.

    The wonderful blend of genres – SciFi love story meets thriller, with religious undertones! 
    In 1969 Astrophysicist Dr. Horace Mitchel spent 3-years alone in a Nevada desert "Deep Underground Military Base" with what was believed to be a female, negroid-looking extraterrestrial visitor from another world. The highly classified black project was a scheduled visitation called Project Mogul. Without any supervision or oversight, they grew very close and more intimate with each other, finally discovering that their bodies were sexually compatible. 
    They fell in love. Against protocol, she decided to give him forbidden knowledge. He received an understanding of interdimensional travel, and how to manipulate and bend the elemental laws. She even showed him the future and how the world would end and the part he must play in it. He documented every detail in his journal but decided to never completely share its contents with anyone. He feared the shockwave of anarchy that his information would create all over the world. 
    Exactly 52 years later, Dr. Mitchel finds himself on an international government hit list, marked for death because of secrets he shouldn't know. He is the only living scientist left from Project Mogul who knows about the government's final plans for Earth and how they can be stopped. It's a secret that they want to keep hidden. 
    Dr. Mitchel can reveal the damning truth about how this world has always had scheduled alien visitations from the beings that created it. He can expose how the governments of the world, led by the United States of America, conspired to never allow the masses to know that we are not alone and never have been. Dr. Mitchel and the twelve people who eventually join him on his journey, find themselves in the middle of a war that began long ago, a war for the very souls of mankind in this, the Last Visitation.

    In this story Ray Bradbury takes a hard look at insanity and shines an unblinking light on every culture and age on earth. Why do we lable someone crazy or insane? Because they don't fit in. But is it the insane who must be kept locked away, or is it simply the insane culture they live in that needs to be changed to fit them? Far in the future, humans have the possibility of fitting the delusional emperor Nero to a world that hails him as a god instead of locking him away. He is happy and sane and the world he is in is happy and sane. They match. In this story, Lisbeth, or rather Catherine, Queen of All Russia, stops being crazy and begins her rightful rule as the sanest person on that world.
