À propos de cet e-book

From the legendary mind of Philip K. Dick, the author who inspired blockbuster films like Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report, comes The Gun,a gripping science fiction short story filled with riveting thrills, psychological depth, dark humor, and a touch of intentional chaos.

Embark on a high-stakes voyage into the depths of space as our intrepid explorers seek connection with intelligent life among the stars. But when a mysterious bright light leads them to crash land on an eerie and desolate planet, this expedition becomes a dangerous game of survival. Our protagonists face lingering despair as they uncover the harrowing truth behind the planet's inhabitants and their ultimate demise. With their ship crippled by a deadly and persistent weapon, they brace for the challenge of outsmarting an enemy they cannot see.
