FREE: Jem by Frederik Pohl

The listing, Jem by Frederik Pohl has ended.

The earth on which the curtain rises is not an unfamiliar one: a spirit of cooperation and mutual interdependence among countries prevails, but the globe has become firmly divided into 3 powers, the fuel bloc, the food bloc, and the people bloc. Danny dalehouse and Margie Menninger meet in Bulgaria at the 10th World Conference on Exobiology, where data is being exchanged about Kung's Semistellar Object, otherwise known by the unappealing name of N-OA Bes-bes Geminorrum 8426 - and soon to be shortened to JEM. Upon this distant planet, lit by a red sun and graced with an oxygenated atmosphere, occurs a bold attempt at peaceful colonization. A true Sci-Fi. The original paper jacket shows some wear , but when you open this 1979 hardback book, the inside looks new.
