Beschreibung

Pillar of Fire - Ray Bradbury - William Lantry awakes hundreds of years in the future after having died in 1933. He awakes with a burning rage towards mankind and as he learns more about this futuristic place, it only grows. He discovers that the graveyards of old have been destroyed and he was in one of the last ones. He's unsure of why he has been brought back to life but he escapes being sent to the incinerator as is done with so many other humans. Every town has a large incinerator where people dead or about to die are taken to to be cremated. There appears no sadness in this but that this is merely part of the process. This world no longer lies or commits violence. Ceremonies and funerals are a thing of the past. Enraged by this new world, William sets to killing people and destroying the incinerators.

    Humans have expanded to myriads of worlds throughout the galaxies but they have found that the only way for colonies to be self sustaining, was to reproduce the total ecology of their home world; the original Earth. This meant bringing the entire ecosystem, the good, the bad and the ugly. Viruses as well as grass, goats as well as stink bugs and allowing the whole mixture to ultimately produce an inhabitable world for humans. But what happens when this system is not properly supervised? Moran and the others in the space yacht Nadine find a world where strange things have been brewing for over a hundred years and may or may not survive an environment gone mad.

    Earth, 2512 A.D. Humans have spread across the six arms of the Milky Way Galaxy. The Unified Authority controls Earth's colonies with an iron fist and a powerful military----a military made up almost entirely of clones. But four centuries of relative peace are about to be shattered...Lt. Wayson Harris is one of thousands of clones born and bred to be the ultimate soldiers. But unlike the others, Harris is an outlawed model -- one with independent thoughts and an addiction to violence.Presumed dead after his troops were massacred, Harris -- who blames the U.A. for the slaughter -- has gone AWOL as a bounty hunter. Still, it's hard for a clone to overcome his conditioning, and Harris finds himself drawn back into the U.A.'s service by his mentor and creator, Fleet Admiral Bryce Klyber.Now, with separatists rebelling throughout the galaxy, the fate of the U.A. depends on Admiral Klyber's plans for the Doctrinaire -- the largest, most powerful battleship ever constructed. But there are those who would do anything to stop Klyber, and Harris must decide whether he should fight against them…or work for them.
