About This Item
London: Gollancz, 2014. Book. Very Good. Trade Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. very good, trade paperback. 1st in the 'Proxima' series of books:- Synopsis: "If you succeed, no, when you succeed in taming this wilderness, this world of Proxima Centauri, you will have proven that mankind can colonise this ultimate frontier, a planet of a red dwarf star. And because there are hundreds of billions of red dwarf stars, and because they'll last trillions of years, suddenly mankind's future in this Galaxy is all but infinite. And it will all be because of you. But there's a catch. Everybody wants to be a pioneer, you see. The first on the moon, like Armstrong. The first on Mars, like Cao Xi. Or they want to be a citizen of the tamed worlds of the future. Nobody wants to be a settler. Labouring to break the ground and build a farm. Their children growing up in a cage of emptiness. Which is where you come in."..
