Fred Thomas Saberhagen (1930-2007), a native of Chicago, served with the US Air Force then worked as an electronics technician and as a science writer and editor for the Encyclopaedia Britannica. He began writing science fiction for Galaxy in 1961. His first novel, The Golden People, was published in 1964. He is most renowned for the Berserker series of stories and novels.
In the sometime future, the descendants of Earth's humans inhabit the empire of the EightWorlds. Fred Saberhagen is best known for his Berserker series, which examines the man-machine conflict. You need not be a "Serka" to thoroughly enjoy this listen, for the story stands on its own. Barrett Whitener's wide range, depth, and scope of language bring every character to life, from Prince Harivarman to the Templar recruit Chen Shiszuoko. Whitener makes them all instantly recognizable, leaving the listener mesmerized and free to enjoy the surprising twists and turns of the story. If you're a lover of science fiction and fantasy, this book should be at the top of your list. M.F.D. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
