The Werewolf Principle
Imagine a world where your house talks to you, it makes your bed, it makes you breakfast, it reads your newspaper and it even flies. Imagine returning from an interstellar journey into a world like this after a 200 years - lost, alone, without any recollection of what has happened to you. Or maybe not so alone?
Andrew Blake has been found frozen in a life pod between the stars. Nobody knows who he is, where he has been or what has happened to him - the only clue he has about the time of his departure is that there were no such “houses” before he left. He has no memory, he is perfectly healthy - except maybe for the strange episodes when he turns into something else, something not so human. And why does the goblin tell him that he is not alone in there?
An exciting book by Clifford D. Simak, a “must read” for all real Science Fiction fans. Slow as it is at times, this book is an exciting description of three entities that are not human: a thinker, a wolf and a not so human, as they are looking for the supreme intellect of the Universe, or just a way to live happy and free. And the book holds an unexpected twist at the end… read it, find out for yourself.
