A World Called Solitude--science fiction by Stephen Goldin
A World Called Solitude, a science fiction novel by Stephen Goldin originally published in hardcover by Doubleday, is now available as an ebook from Parsina Press.
DESCRIPTION: Birk Aaland is a political outcast from Earth's tyranny, and has been living for years on a planet inhabited solely by robots, ever since his ship crashed here. Now another ship has crashed, and there is again a single survivor -- a woman who's desperate to warn Earth of an alien invasion. But Birk is perfectly happy with his current exile -- until a twist of fate intervenes, causing each of them to re-evaluate their lives and their total existence. Reviewing the book for Analog Magazine, Tom Easton said, "The story gains an emotionality that justifies calling Goldin an artist, not merely a writer." A World Called Solitude takes its protagonist to the limits of what it means to be human. Take the journey with him. |
