Search The Sky

Embark on a satirical science fiction journey with Search the Sky, a collaborative masterpiece by Frederik Pohl and C.M. Kornbluth. Originally published in 1954, this novel delves into the decline of human colonies scattered across the stars. When a generation ship arrives at Halsey's Planet, having failed to contact six other colonies, Ross is dispatched to investigate the fate of humanity's far-flung outposts. Equipped with a secret faster-than-light ship, he uncovers a universe of societal decay and genetic drift. Each planet he visits reveals a unique downfall—one destroyed, another ruled by an aging elite, and a third by a repressive matriarchy. Through Ross's journey, the novel explores themes of isolation, societal collapse, and the consequences of unchecked power.
