📚 The Odysseus Solution Michael A. Banks Dean R. Lambe

The Odysseus Solution Michael A. Banks Dean R. Lambe In the normal course of things, the invention of the matter duplicator would not have proved fatal to the human civilization: a severe economic crisis, followed by a world of incredible wealth, would have been the result. But the duplicators were not invented here; rather they were secretly introduced into an unready culture by aliens bent on conquest and colonization. The plan was to present themselves at the height of the turmoil as Humanity's saviors, and the plan worked. By the late 21st century, the aliens ruled Earth with an iron claw. But since the beginning of the Cweom-jik rule, a human underground descended from scientific research centers has toiled desperately to regain Man's heritage. Now they are ready to properly thank the birdlike aliens for all their help. 279 pages Paperback book First printing February 1, 1986 by Baen ISBN: 9780671655532 ISBN10: 0671655531 fair used condition see photos science fiction vintage retro 80s 80's 1980's 1980s gn m1 bin
