Description


The Golden Globe is a Locus nominated novel by John Varley, a science fiction writer who has won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards multiple times. The Golden Globe is set in the same continuity as Steel Beach, taking place about 10 years later, and was published in 1998. The Golden Globe and Steel Beach take place in a universe similar to, but different from, Varley’s "Eight Worlds" universe; in both universes, the solar system has been colonized by human refugees fleeing aliens (known simply as "the Invaders") invading the Earth. Earth and Jupiter are off-limits to humanity, but Earth's moon (known as Luna) and the other planets and moons of the solar system have all become heavily populated. There are also minor colonies set in the Oort cloud beyond the solar system itself. The Golden Globe story is told initially from a first person perspective, but a substantial portion of the book comes in the form of extended flashbacks. The Golden Globe in question is Luna, Earth's moon and the most heavily inhabited world in the solar system since the Invaders obliterated human civilization on Earth. Le Golden Globe est un roman de John Varley , un écrivain de science- fiction qui a remporté à la fois le Prix Hugo et Nebula Awards plusieurs fois . Le Golden Globe est situé dans la même continuité que « Plage de l'acier » , qui a lieu environ 10 ans plus tard , et a été publié en 1998 . Le Golden Globe et Plage de l'acier se déroulent dans un univers similaire, mais différente de " Huit mondes " univers de Varley ; dans les deux univers , le système solaire a été colonisée par les réfugiés fuyant les droits des étrangers ( connu simplement comme " les envahisseurs" ) envahir la Terre . Terre et Jupiter sont hors-limites pour l'humanité , mais la lune de la Terre ( connue sous le nom de Luna ) et les autres planètes et les lunes du système solaire sont tous devenus très peuplée . Il ya aussi des colonies mineures prévues dans le nuage d'Oort au-delà du système solaire lui-même . L'histoire est racontée d'abord d'un point de vue à la première personne , mais une partie importante de l'ouvrage se présente sous la forme de flashbacks prolongés . Le Golden Globe en question est Luna , la lune de la terre et le monde plus fortement habitée du système solaire depuis les envahisseurs oblitérée civilisation humaine sur Terre. source Wikipedia

Do not worry dear Lisa, I put in a folder, each image I load on Renderosity, and after verification from the last 806, I have not found such a picture. The images in my gallery are on RR images reformatted to a size less than 512kB, from a stock of fractals I realse in size and heavier weights ... I always try to load it on RR from images the latest I've done ... but sometimes I use the same transformation algorithms, and I can get pictures of the same style! Thank you for your comment!
