3,56 €
Podobni bohům takes the space expedition to Venus and a technologically advanced opponent. Exploration of unfamiliar nature gradually becomes a confrontation in which human technology offers no clear guarantee of superiority.
Podobni bohům is the second volume of Jan Matzal Troska's science fiction trilogy Zápas s nebem. After the events on Mars, the space expedition sets its sights on Venus. At first, the heroes encounter surroundings reminiscent of Earth's distant geological past, but soon discover evidence of an advanced civilization. Exploration of an unknown world becomes a confrontation with an opponent whose technology at least matches humanity's capabilities.

What is Podobni bohům about?
The second Zápas s nebem volume directly continues the heroes' journey through the Solar System. Leaving Mars, they head for Venus. Their first encounter with life there suggests a primitive world resembling Earth's Mesozoic era, but that impression changes when they discover machines belonging to an advanced civilization. They name one of them Žlutý přízrak. Contact with unfamiliar technology turns into a dangerous clash, revealing that humans are not alone in possessing advanced technical abilities. Troska develops the first volume's themes of planetary exploration, fantastic technology, and an inhabited Solar System, while placing greater emphasis on contact between civilizations and what happens when technologically comparable but hostile societies meet.
