Joker Moon, Paperback / softback Book

Joker Moon Paperback / softback

Edited by George R.R. Martin

Part of the Wild Cards series

Paperback / softback

Description

The return of the famous shared-world superhero books created and edited by fantasy titan George R.R.

Martin. In the aftermath of World War II, the Earth’s population was devastated by a terrifying alien virus.

Those who survived were changed for ever. This is the story of that world. Theodorus was a dreamer. As a child, he dreamed of aeroplanes, rockets and outer space.

When the wild card virus touched him and transformed him into a monstrous snail centaur weighing several tons, his boyhood dreams seemed out of reach, but a Witherspoon is not so easily defeated.

Years and decades passed, and Theodorus grew to maturity and came into his fortune . . . but still his dream endured. But now when he looked upward into the night sky, he saw more than just the Moon . . . he saw a joker homeland, a refuge where the outcast children of the wild card could make a place of their own, safe from hate and harm.  An impossible dream, some said.

Others, alarmed by the prospect, brought all their power to bear to oppose him.

Theodorus persisted . . . . . . never dreaming that the Moon was already inhabited. And the Moon Maid did not want company.  For decades, George R.R. Martin – bestselling author of A Song of Ice and Fire – has collaborated with an ever-shifting ensemble of science fiction and fantasy icons to create the amazing Wild Cards universe.
