En savoir plus sur le livre
A monumental work acclaimed as a masterpiece, this 1.2-million-word, ten-volume dekalogy brilliantly blends science fiction and action/adventure on an interstellar scale with sharp satire reminiscent of Voltaire, Swift, and Orwell. A true publishing phenomenon, each volume became a New York Times bestseller and has sold over five million copies worldwide, continuing to appear on bestseller lists. It has won France's Cosmos 2000 Award and Italy's Nova Science Fiction Award, and was nominated for a Hugo Award. The epic narrative details a secret invasion of Earth from the perspective of aliens who live among us unnoticed. The story is filled with memorable characters and richly described settings, including Palace City, Joy City, and the ominous prison fortress of Spiteos, all against the backdrop of the Voltar Confederation's plan to use Earth as a strategic base for galactic conquest. As Earth faces destruction from pollution, drugs, and other threats, Combat Engineer Jettero Heller is sent on a covert mission to save the planet. Unbeknownst to him, a rival faction within the Voltarian hierarchy is using Earth as a drug supply base and launches its own mission to sabotage Heller's efforts.
