Rendition Supposing Books The Mark of Man

Hal, a Forty, knows when he is going to die. In fact through a cruel genetic twist, so does everybody else; for all 22nd Century humans are born branded with a mark demonstrating their organic timeline. If one has forty rings, one dies at forty. As with all humans, Hal has learned to accept his fate, until he falls in love with Ama, a Ninety.

In the search for a cure to The Mark, Laozi Veda, the head of the Vedas Corporation, coerces Ama into leaving Hal and sends her on a secret mission with a team of 'specialists' to the distant planet of Kepler.

A year later Hal, loveless and careworn, receives an unexpected offer to travel under a different guise to the same place. He arrives to find an outwardly peaceful society but soon after conditions change and the planet becomes an extremely dangerous place for them all.

With fascinating new insights into complex societies, The Mark of Man, is science fiction at its best - giving us the 'what if' question with unwavering commitment and invention.

From alien idles to terrorist uprisings, this book will echo through the portals of time to give fresh insight into the human condition.

Write-Up Containing Books The Mark of Man

Philisophical is the perfect word to describe the mark of man. Before reading this novel I had never heard of Owen H. Lewis.Now, to be straight up, and I point this out a lot, I am not strictly a big fan of sci fi as a genre, like any, there are good and bad, but it just isnt really my thing. The mark of man does not read like your standard walk among us or alien invasion leading to world domination style thing, much more like Blade Runner did with movies, this concentrates very heavily on the

I actually finished reading this a few days ago, but I've been so busy that I've been unable to do anything more but think only of sleep when I get home. Whoops! Anyway, on with the review.I was quite keen to get started on this book. The concept behind it- that people are born with rings on their wrist that signify when they will die- grabbed me, as did the concept of what society would be like if this were to occur. In the early chapters, this is actually explored, and we get an insight into

The Mark of ManbyOwen H. LewisDont be put off by the sci-fi label, this is an intriguing book for anyone that likes intelligent and thought provoking story telling. And its not only a book for boys either. Set in the not so distant future, humans are now born with a mark that accurately indicates the individuals genetic lifespan. Its a chilling premise and Lewis then takes the reader on a vividly drawn and highly imaginative adventure in search of the reason and the possible cure. The book

I won this book as part of goodreads Firstreads.Although this book was a little hard to get into I persevered, as the blurb on the back really intrigued me. I am glad I did and I really enjoyed the story. At stages the characters were confusing but this all falls into place as the story continues. I liked both the concept and the characters - although I would like more of Voegel's story and that of Ama's father, I also enjoyed the outcome and ending.Great book 4 stars
