Teora-un vis pierdut!

Pentru multi dintre noi aparitia editurii Teora pe piata a insemnat  intilnirea cu Isaac Asimov dar si cu alti mari scriitori ai sf-ului mondial. Avindu-l la cirma colectiei de SF pe vestitul traducator Mihai-Dan Pavelescu,editura Teora a reusit prin cele peste patruzeci de titluri sa ne incinte ochiul si inima.In imaginile urmatoare va voi prezenta o integrala Teora:

Cel mai frumos roman al lui Asimov.Un roman memorabil din toate punctele de vedere.

Prequel-ul faimoasei Fundatiii asimoviene,dar nu este singura carte.

Dar daca noi nu suntem altceva decit pulbere de stele?!

Spatiul privit ca un ocean de o imensitate covirsitoare.

Cel mai in voga serial transpus literar.

Daca evreii l-au avut pe Moise cu cele zece legi, noi am avut norocul sa il avem pe Asimov cu cele trei legi ale roboticii.Inceputul marii odisei a unui robot care avea sa schimbe umanitatea.

Planetele sunt pietre agatate de cerul noptii.

O carte superba care cred ca nu mai are nevoie de recomandari pentru a fi citita!

Cu dedicatie pentru Jen- Un fantasy marca Zelazny care place.

Cei doi titani ai sf-ului mondial si-au dat mina si-a a iesit o capodopera.Un roman remarcabil din care s-a inspirat si filmul Pitch Black.

Inca o capodopera a celor doi titani! Omul de Neanderthal adus in zilele noastre.

Haldeman=cel mai bun scriitor de sf.Un roman despre puterea latenta a mintii.

O carte la superlativ.Fara cuvinte!

Marea aventura a lui Daneel Olivaw incepe!

Un roman superb marca Niven,a se citi fara doar si poate!

Asimov again!

Prima intilnire cu acest uluitor si nemaipomenit Greg Egan.O carte mai mult actuala sau daca vreti cu un pas inainte de viitor.

Un episod din grandioasa fresca a omenirii imaginata de Asimov in ciclul Fundatiei.

Egan mereu inepuizabil si plin de surprize!

Oare ce se afla intr-un corp uman? Asimov ne-a raspuns in stilu-i caracteristic scurt si la obiect!

Rivalizind cu Dune si Fundatia, Lumea Inelara ne propune o lume in care stiinta si tehnologia devine magie, o lume atit de vasta incit nici mintea nu o poate cuprinde.Highly recomended!

Minunata Caoara si Coroziunea Roz

Nascut pe 1 aprilie pe malul marii la Constanta, Costi Gurgu a devenit un fenomen Serge Brussolo autohton detasindu-se clar ca scriitor nonconformist in peisajul sf romanesc.A debutat in paginile Jurnalului SF cu o povestire care a facut furori inca de la aparitie si cu care a cistigat inimile multor fani sf,este vorba de Minunata Caoara aparuta in 1993. Au urmat apoi multe texte care aveau sa intre direct in topul cititorilor Jurnalului SF,texte pe care avea sa le risipeasca cu darnicie prin mai multe publicatii , antologii, si reviste.

In 2001 aparea la  editura  Prologos culegerea de povestiri marca Costi Gurgu-„Ciuma de sticla”,  prilej de bucurie pentru mine dupa achizitionarea cartii,a fost dragoste la prima vedere si o mare incintare la citirea cartii,povestile erau bine scrise  cu o mare doza imaginativa si narativa.O recomand cu caldura si a se citi fara doar si poate!

Membru fondator al grupului KULT coordoneaza trei antologii care i-au iesit de minune exprimind astfel zorii  new weird-ului romanesc,astfel se prefigura aparitia romanului Retetarium(editura Tritonic 2005) un roman excelent si bun ca un desert la o masa regeasca. Ca istorie acest roman a stat prin sertarele autorului inca din anul 1994,pacat ca nimeni si ma refer la editori nu a avut curajul de a publica acest Retetarium fenomenal.

In 2009 Costi „recidiveaza” publicind o povestire care impresioneaza prin forta imaginilor si a scriiturii Angel and Moths intr-o antologie aparuta in spatiul anglo-saxon si care a fost primita foarte bine,este vorba de  „Ages of Wonder”.Unele guri rele au afirmat ca aceasta povestire nu o sa apara in romaneste dar eu nutresc speranta si am incredere in viitor ca va fi publicata si astfel vom avea parte de inca un festin -deliciu literar marca inconfundabila Costi Gurgu.

Astazi este ziua prietenului nostru Costi ! Sa-i dea dumnezeu multa putere de munca si sa ne scrie cit mai multe povestiri si carti!

LA MULTI ANI COSTI ! Iti urez din inima si din suflet multa sanatate si fericire, la cit mai multe carti scrise si cit mai multe realizari profesionale! Sa ne traiesti ca ne trebuiesti!

Spor la gratar si distractie maxima!

ti-a urat cu drag fanul sf voicunike
