Synopsis

Phase one had been completed and the Crellar had returned to the ancient techno-landfill with their ship. They were one step closer to returning to their native Crellum.Humans provide a great source of physical and emotional nourishment to the Crellar. Now that humankind had returned to living in an agrarian society, they could offer no resistance to the Crellar fleet which would return in overwhelming numbers.Standing in the way of this plan was a most unlikely and unwilling hero: Lars “Gulliver” Nilsson, a computer programmer who had never left the subterranean Bunker in which he and ninety-nine other humans had lived their entire lives.Gulliver and the others were the descendants of those who had taken shelter during the robotic rebellion which had nearly eradicated all humans from the face of the Earth.Had the robots accomplished their mission there would be no life forms of any kind left on Earth. Their goal had been to create a world much more conducive to machinery.Although his title was Programmer, Gulliver had never actually programmed anything. He interacted daily with Central, the only artificial intelligence in existence. Gulliver and all humanity had the colossal supercomputer to thank for the fact that there was any life on the planet whatsoever.His people also had Central to thank for their day-to-day lives: the computer provided them with all they needed. And they were the only humans left that used electricity or any other form of technology.Gulliver had a singular mission to perform: he was to go and destroy the Crellar fighter, using a hand held pulse beam weapon that Central would provide him.The mission might have been simple: accomplishing it would be quite complicated.Gulliver had never been outside before. He had a great deal to learn simply to survive.His teachers would not be of the "school" variety: they were those who had learned the hard way how hard life could be.The giant Hammer would be among them, and this would make things much simpler. But "simpler" is a relative term, as Gulliver would soon discover.This action adventure novel concludes the Hunter's Wheel series with a literal bang!

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

About the Author C. E. Crum has had a diverse and colorful background. A native of Southeastern Pennsylvania, extensive travel has been a part of his life. He has experienced a wide variety of occupations. His love of music has been a constant. At 61, he still performs reg-ularly as a rock & roll lead guitar player and vocalist. Mr. Crum’s single greatest passion, however, is writing; throughout all of his experiences, one thought always persisted: "I will write about this." The dam has burst, the writing has begun, and he only hopes to live long enough to impart all he has to share, since this will take some time.
