Armchair fiction presents extra large paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. Back in print for the first time in years, “The Omega Point Trilogy” is a top-notch thriller by science fiction maestro, George Zebrowski. The year was 6599 A.D. The war between the Earth Federation and the Herculean Empire had been well over for three centuries. The planet in the Hercules Globular Cluster was now a cinder; the sparse descendants of the surviving Herculeans lived on Myraa’s World, half a galaxy away, in what seemed to be a religious commune. But on an unnamed planet well inside the Hercules Cluster, two survivors, a father and son, gather up their resources and plan a reign of fear against Federation worlds. But the woman Myraa has a different vision—one that excludes empires and warring armies. Subtly, she tries to shape events to a different end. Racing to a rousing, unique climax, George Zebrowski’s “The Omega Point Trilogy” is a novel of vengeance and chase, depicting a colorful, poetic future, that’s seeking to overcome its past. Filled with striking twists and vivid ideas, it is modern space opera at its best.
