Description: "Worlds" by Joe Haldeman, first published in 1982 as a Pocket Books paperback, marks the beginning of a significant science fiction trilogy by the acclaimed author. Set in a future where humanity has colonized space, the novel follows Marianne O'Hara, a young woman from one of the "worlds," a series of orbiting colonies. As she leaves her home to study in New York on Earth, she becomes entangled in political intrigue, the looming threat of war between Earth and the worlds, and the struggle for independence among the space colonies. Haldeman, known for his masterful storytelling and exploration of complex themes, blends political drama, space adventure, and personal coming-of-age in this richly imagined future. "Worlds" delves into issues of identity, societal structures, and the effects of technology on humanity, all while presenting a vivid portrait of a divided and evolving future. This first edition paperback is a great addition for collectors of classic science fiction, especially those familiar with Haldeman's works, such as "The Forever War." "Worlds" is a thought-provoking start to a trilogy that explores the conflict between Earth and its colonies, the nature of human society, and the personal journey of its protagonist.
