Description

One of Robert Sheckley’s most famous science-fiction novels. The main character is a 27-year-old citizen, Will Barrent, accused of murder, who ends up on the prison planet Omega. A special feature of the state system is that every citizen must use drugs, attend black masses, break the law, and kill. Barrent remembers nothing and clearly feels that he’s here through no fault of his own. Trying to understand his own past, Barrent gets drawn into incredible twists and turns, as a result of which he is sent back to Earth. But what awaits the hero on his home planet?

Unbelievable adventures of Will Barrent, the terrifying robot Max, needle-ray workers and screeching mutant creatures—everything else is in this fantastic, and in essence philosophical, novel by Robert Sheckley “The Status Civilization.”
