Le mot de POP LIVRE

Quatre cent neuf pages, et un triplé Hugo-Nebula-Arthur C. Clarke pour un premier roman paru en 2013 — une moisson que peu d'auteurs ont égalée. Les cent premières pages demandent un effort, le temps de s'habituer au dispositif. Passé ce cap, c'est un des grands space operas contemporains.

Présentation

Once the artificial intelligence of a vast warship, spread across thousands of ancillary bodies, Breq is now confined to a single human frame and driven by a thirst for revenge across a galactic empire. Ann Leckie's debut swept the Hugo, Nebula and Arthur C. Clarke Awards in a clean sweep unmatched in modern science fiction, reinventing space opera with its dizzying play on identity, gender and empire. A landmark of the genre, as thrilling as it is cerebral — the perfect gateway for anyone curious about what contemporary SF can do.
