To Die in Italbar

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

To Die in Italbar (1973) is a science fiction novel by American writer Roger Zelazny. To Die in Italbar follows Mr. H, a man who needs only to touch someone to heal or hurt them, during a deadly galactic pandemic. The novel is a distant legacy sequel to Zelazny's novel Isle of the Dead, taking place at least a few decades later, with the previous protagonist Francis Sandow appearing late in the book as a secondary character. Zelazny wrote this novel hastily to fulfill a contract when he became a full-time writer in May 1969, and the publisher declined to publish it at that time. Zelazny revisited the manuscript in 1972 and added about 25% of new material, including a cameo of Sandow to "jazz up" the novel. It was finally released in 1973. He regretted the book ever since that time, calling it his "worst novel" and noting that “If I could kill off one book it would be To Die in Italbar. I wrote that in a hurry to make some money after I quit my job.”
