The Big Hunt
ByPublisher Description
After an accident with his spaceship (or was it an attack by aliens?), Captain Joram wants to go back. He wants revenge! Detective Adam goes along with a simple assignment: why do all Higgs-powered ships get into accidents in the first place? The assignment becomes dangerous when Joram turns nuts. What danger threatens them? To carry out his assignment, Adam must survive both the trial run and Captain Joram.
One reader commented: "A wonderful SF-MobyDick tribute with human protagonists. This fits seamlessly with the author's philosophy: 'SF is about us and our world, even when it's not about us and our world.'

About Charles van Wettum
Charles van Wettum (1957) schrijft sciencefictionverhalen. Zijn levenservaring komt samen in zijn 'SF met een hart'- verhalen: boeiende speculatieve fictie, soms vervreemdend, soms al te herkenbaar. Spannend en uitdagend om (soms) even stil te staan bij vragen van menszijn en maatschappij.
