Beskrivelse af This World Is Taboo
Murray Leinster's "This World Is Taboo" is a gripping science fiction novel. This captivating narrative transports readers to a distant planet filled with mystery, intrigue, and ethical quandaries. The story takes place in a future in which humanity has constructed a large network of interconnected star systems known as the Interstellar Confederation. Calhoun, a resourceful and eccentric medical researcher, is introduced against this setting. He is charged with studying Dara, a strange and forbidden planet generally known as "Taboo." Dara is noted for its unusual and baffling characteristics: it is home to two intelligent species, an indigenous race and human colonists. However, a mysterious, deadly illness infects the planet, endangering the colonists' lives. Calhoun must traverse a complex web of politics, ethics, and intergalactic diplomacy in order to determine the plague's roots and find a cure. Murray Leinster's tale expertly blends aspects of mystery, medical research, and ethical inquiry. The complex world-building and character development in "This World Is Taboo" captivates readers. In the framework of interplanetary politics, the story explores issues of xenophobia, cooperation, and the repercussions of scientific discovery. Leinster, through the figure of Calhoun, addresses provocative themes regarding scientists' obligations and the influence of their work on extraterrestrial civilizations.
