Remote fire 2.

On Gama, the second planet of Tau Ceti, Gregor Man, the astronaut-geologist we met in The Return of the Viking, is no longer fighting for his life in the prehistoric jungle, but in a world reminiscent of ancient societies, but no less ruthless. Can the knowledge brought from Earth, the ethics brought from the 25th century, be valid in an environment that basically relies on violence and beliefs? What happens if, guided by our moral considerations, we unintentionally influence the history of a planet? What can a person do for the sake and protection of his immediate environment, how can he help them on the path of development and enlightenment, so that his efforts do not drastically upset the balance of power in local societies - or turn against them? With the second volume of Péter Zsoldos' classic trilogy, he opened a new chapter in the history of Hungarian SF. He combined the daring thought experiments of science fiction literature with the best traditions of historical novels, authentically and plastically presenting the ruthless world of an alien planet, which shows features parallel to the history of humanity. Exciting adventures are replaced by difficult decisions, instead of the fate of an individual, this time we can worry about an entire nation. And in the meantime, even without noticing, we get a hearty lesson in humanity.
