About the Book

Un gran clásico de la ciencia ficción de todos los tiempos, ahora en edición coleccionista para el lector joven.

En una galaxia lejana, donde sigue vigente la esclavitud, otro niño huérfano es vendido en una subasta. Se trata de Thorby. Su nuevo dueño, Baslim, no es el mendigo lisiado que parece ser: tras adoptar a Thorby como si fuera su hijo, lucha sin descanso como espía abolicionista. Pero cuando las autoridades se acercan a Baslim, Thorby debe viajar a través de los mundos de una galaxia hostil y armarse de coraje para buscar su camino desde el último peldaño de la sociedad. En su lucha por ser reconocido como ciudadano de la galaxia, Thorby cambiará para siempre cuando descubra la verdad sobre su propia identidad. Esta novela, originariamente escrita en 1957, es un clásico indiscutible de la ciencia ficción, pero también una novela juvenil que, desde entonces, ha iniciado a varias generaciones de lectores en la literatura de género. Su autor, Robert A. Heinlein, es uno de los mayores creadores de la ciencia ficción clásica. La crítica ha dicho...«Tan satírica como provocativa... un protagonista que descubre los valores de la sociedad libre y del individuo.»Kirkus Reviews «Una poderosa combinación de ciencia ficción y misterio.»School Library Journal

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A classic novel from the mind of the storyteller who captures the imagination of readers from around the world, and across two generations Science Fiction Grand Master

ROBERT A. HEINLEIN
CITIZEN OF THE GALAXY

In a distant galaxy, the atrocity of slavery was alive and well, and young Thorby was just another orphaned boy sold at auction. But his new owner, Baslim, is not the disabled beggar he appears to be: adopting Thorby as his son, he fights relentlessly as an abolitionist spy. When the authorities close in on Baslim, Thorby must ride with the Free Traders -- a league of merchant princes -- throughout the many worlds of a hostile galaxy, finding the courage to live by his wits and fight his way from society's lowest rung. But Thorby's destiny will be forever changed when he discovers the truth about his own identity....
About the Author: Robert Anson Heinlein (Butler, 7 de julio de 1907 - Carmel, 8 de mayo de 1988) fue un escritor estadounidense de ciencia ficción considerado por algunos críticos entre los tres mejores de todos los tiempos, junto con Isaac Asimov y Arthur C. Clarke.

Robert Heinlein ganó cuatro premios Hugo por Estrella doble (1956), Tropas del espacio (1960), Forastero en tierra extraña (1962) y La Luna es una cruel amante (1967). Fue elegido en 1974 Gran Maestro por la Asociación de escritores de ciencia ficción y fantasía de Estados Unidos (SFWA), convirtiéndose así en el primer galardonado con esta distinción.

Habitualmente riguroso en cuanto a la base científica en sus historias, incluso sus historias de fantasía contienen una estructura científica lógica. Una de las características que definen su escritura fue el introducir en la temática de la ciencia ficción la administración, la política, la economía, la lingüística, la sociología y la genética. Fue también uno de los abanderados del individualismo, lo cual quedaba reflejado en la riqueza de los personajes (ejemplo claro es Lazarus Long), tanto en conocimientos, como en habilidades.
