Synopsis

It was nearly winter when the ship arrived. Pete Farnam never knew if the timing had been planned that way or not. It might have been coincidence that it came just when the colony was predicting its first real bumper crop of all time. When it was all over, Pete and Mario and the rest tried to figure it out, but none of them ever knew for sure just what had happened back on Earth, or when it had actually happened. There was too little information to go on, and practically none that they could trust. All Pete Farnam really knew, that day, was that this was the wrong year for a ship from Earth to land on Baron IV.

À propos de l'auteur

Alan E. Nourse (1928-1992) was an American science fiction writer and physician whose work frequently explored the intersection of science, medicine, and society. Writing during the mid-twentieth century, he contributed to a period in which science fiction increasingly examined not only technological possibilities but also their social and ethical implications.Nourse authored numerous novels and short stories, often drawing on his medical background to inform his portrayal of systems, institutions, and human behaviour. His writing is characterised by clarity of concept and an emphasis on the consequences of structured environments. Works such as Image of the Gods reflect his interest in the relationship between knowledge, belief, and human response within speculative settings.
