Times Without Number by John Brunner Ballantine Books (1983) Don Miguel Navarro is a man with a most unusual job. As a Licentiate of the Society of Time, he is a time traveling agent for a Spanish Empire that continues to thrive four hundred years after the Armada successfully conquered England in 1588. Tasked with observing the past, he is always on the lookout for improper uses of time travel lest it bring about changes to the present. A casual encounter at a party results in just such a discovery, one that leads Don Miguel to a sinister conspiracy that threatens to alter history and undo the entire empire itself unless it is stopped. John Brunner's novel is a cut above most of its counterparts. A collection of three interlocking tales that were originally published as separate short stories, together they offer a series of entertaining adventures in an imaginative setting. The cover artist is Michael Ferris. . Overall Great Condition, Good Spine With Faint Creases, Binding Tight, Pages Look Great . . . #timeswithoutnumber #johnbrunner #paperbacksciencefiction #sciencefiction #fiction #instabooks #bookstagram #instabookstagram #paperback #bookcollector #bookstore #science #scifi #instabook #bookaddict #bookishlove #bookish #library #timetravel #michaelferris #ballantine #scifiart #syfy #scifibooks #ballantinebooks #ballantinesciencefiction https://www.instagram.com/p/CVAu02GLuD6/?utm_medium=tumblr

John Brunner'dan Şok Dalgası Süvarisi...
Metis yayınlarından çıkan önemli bir bilim kurgu kitabı.. Alvin Toffler'ın Future Shock ve Third Wave adlı futurist araştırma kitaplarından ismini alan bu harika eser siberpunk'ın atalarından sayılıyor. Ama daha ziyade punk'ın olmadığı sadece siber kısmının yer aldığı bir ortam düşünün. Distopik bir gelecek, kirli bir hükümet ve bilgisayar yerine telefon kullanan hackerlar....
1975 yılında basılan kitabın olduğu zamanda bilgisayarlar yerine tuşlu telefonlar daha popülerdi. Nixon'ın istifası ve Şili devlet başkanı Allende'nin öldürüldüğü günlerin ardında yazılan romanda bu iki konuya ilişkin göndermeler de mevcut. Benim asıl ilgimi çeken konulardan birisi romanın yazıldığı dönemde virüs,trojan gibi kavramların bilinmediği halde Brunner'ın tapeworm (tenya,kurt,solucan) kavramını bugünkü teknolojik terminolojide yer alan anlamında kullanmış oluşu. Gerçi çevirmen bunu bağırsak kurdu olarak çevirmiş ama bilim kurgu çevirilerinde artık bu tür tuhaf çevirilere rastlamak pek şaşırtmıyor beni.... Romanda, geleceğe ait çizilen tablo bugünküne oldukça benziyor.
Ben çok beğendim, tüm bilim kurgu ve futurist konulara ilgili olanlara tavsiye ederim. Romanda yer alan Fencing Game(eskrim değil) adlı oyunu da bu vesile ile öğrenmiş oldum bu arada, oldukça ilginç bir oyun...
