Patterns of Chaos

Chaos #1

by Colin Kapp

An assassination is ordered-700 million years ago

Bron is a chaos catalyst. He wreaks havoc and destruction as surely as a hurricane wherever he goes. Commando Central has planted an electrode transmitter-receiver deep inside his brain and infiltrated him into the Destroyer Spacefleet to prevent it from gaining absolute mastery of the galaxy. But Bron's own brand of chaos is lethally unpredictable. And when whole planets are annihilated by monster hellburner bombs set on course seven hundred million years ago from distant Andromeda, aimed directly at Bron himself, both sides realise that something more colossal, more threatening and infinitely more powerful is taking a hand in Bron's weird destiny...

The Patterns of Chaos is SF in the grand style-a mighty tale of galactic intrigue and destruction.

Reviews

[Olimpija]

Knyga nebuvo labai bloga, bet istorija dėl kurios kaip tik ir ėmiau šią knygą skaityti mane netgi supykino nors nepasakyčiau, kad jį buvo itin šlykšti, tiesiog kėlė tokį vidinį pasišlykštėjimą. Tačiau pats pirmas apsakymas man pasirodė ganėtinai įdomus nors nesu mokslinės fantastikos gerbėja. Apskritai, nerekomenduočiau, bet tikrai atsirastų žmonių, kuriems ši knyga - meno kūrinys.
