Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bloat, le gouverneur du Rox, rêvait d’une terre promise. Il voulait faire d’Ellis Island un havre pour son peuple, un foyer pour tous les jokers. Il avait besoin des Permutants, ces parias capables de s’emparer d’un corps humain en un clin d’œil. Il lui fallait leur argent pour nourrir le Rox. Leurs pouvoirs pour tenir à distance la vengeance d’un monde terrorisé. Mais sous les ordres du petit-fils psychopathe du Dr Tachyon, les Permutants sont devenus incontrôlables, et son rêve semblait s’éloigner toujours un peu plus... George R.R. Martin (Le trône de fer) a convoqué certaines des plus fines plumes de la science-fiction américaine pour bâtir un univers post-apocalyptique dans lequel il revisite l’histoire de la fin du XXe siècle.
