Surplus Bellico

Questa serie si immerge nelle cupe conseguenze di un conflitto interstellare, concentrandosi su un solitario soldato cyborg ancora legato da direttive belliche obsolete. Tre secoli dopo la cessazione dei combattimenti, la sua programmazione lo costringe a continuare una guerra da tempo conclusa. La sua scoperta di un pianeta dove la 'magia' percepita viene interpretata dai suoi sistemi come armamento avanzato pone le basi per uno scontro profondo. È un'esplorazione avvincente del dovere, della realtà e della lotta contro la propria esistenza programmata.

    The cyborg code-named "Slant" was sent out as an Independent Reconnaissance Unit during an interstellar war between Earth and its colonies. The fighting ended three hundred years ago, but Slant's computer does not admit this -- he is compelled to carry on as if the war were still raging. Then he comes across a planet where his sensors register "gravitational anomalies." The computer interprets these as enemy weapons research. The local inhabitants call the anomalies "magic." And don't miss the exciting sequel, "The Wizard and the War Machine," available on this web site!

    The Cyborg and the Sorcerers
  • Featuring a unique two-in-one format reminiscent of classic "Ace Doubles," this volume combines two works from Lawrence Watt-Evans' "War Surplus" series. The first story, "The Cyborg and the Sorcerers," explores the intersection of technology and magic, while "The Wizard and the War Machine" delves into the conflicts arising from their coexistence. Readers can flip the book to experience both narratives, showcasing Watt-Evans' imaginative storytelling and blending of genres.
