Description

"Yes sir. Well, there are three men outside trying to kill me...." "Quite right," Mr. Frendlyer said. "And today is Landing Day. You came off the ship that landed today, and have been classified a peon.... I'm happy to say that everything is in order. The Landing Day Hunt ends at sundown. You can leave here with the knowledge that everything is correct and that your rights have not been violated." "Leave here? After sundown, you mean." Mr. Frendlyer shook his head and smiled sadly. "I'm afraid not. According to the law you must leave here at once." "But they'll kill me!" "That's very true. Unfortunately it can't be helped. A victim by definition is one who is to be killed.... We protect rights, not victims." OMEGA: PRISON PLANET LIFE EXPECTANCY: THREE YEARS MAXIMUM MOST PEOPLE ARE LUCKIER THAN THAT....

I had never read anything from Robert Sheckley that I could remember with the possible exception of a short story many years ago. I happened upon a free version of this book in the Kindle store and thought I'd give it a try without even reading a description of what it was about. Within 2 pages I was hooked and I couldn't put the book down and finished the book in a day!The prison planet Omega was quite fascinating and turned many of our beliefs upside down. The book took me somewhere unexpected and made me think about our own society and our status within it. After reading this, I'm even more excited to read "Status Anxiety" which has been sitting on my bookshelf for a few months.
