Book Description
A brilliant on space opera from one of the great stylists of SF
Product Description
John Truck was to outward appearances just another lowlife spaceship captain. But he was also the last of the Centaurans ¿ or at least, half of him was ¿ which meant that he was the only person who could operate the Centauri Device, a sentient bomb which might hold the key to settling a vicious space war. M. John Harrison¿s classic novel turns the conventions of space opera on their head, and is written with the precision and brilliance for which is famed.
