Yıkıma Giden Adam

Winner of the first Hugo Award in history.

"One of the best science fiction classics of all time."
-Isaac Asimov-

"Bester's two tremendous books were ahead of their time. They have remained on everyone's top ten science fiction book lists for nearly sixty years."
-Robert Silverberg-

"I have yet to meet a science fiction writer who does not share my admiration for Bester with the same enthusiasm."
-William Gibson-

"Alfred Bester wrote his novel without ever taking his foot off the gas. A combination of depth and an unprecedented imagination. While William Gibson was playing with a toy ray gun with his friends at school, Bester was busy writing cyberpunk."
-James Lovegrove-

In the 24th century, Ben Reich, one of the most powerful men in the universe, decides to commit a crime that has not even been heard of for seventy years: Murder. In this world, where mind readers called Espers prevented crimes while they were still thinking, it was almost impossible for the Reich to achieve its goal.

Reich, who thought that he had no other choice after his company called Sovereignty lost the fight against the rival company D'Courtney, was also dealing with his real fear, the Faceless Man, in his nightmares. Despite all this, Ben Reich was determined not to give up. With destruction on his mind, he didn't realize he was preparing for Destruction. Man Gone to Destruction is the galaxy's striking response to the megalomaniac within us.

There are endless worlds and cultures, each thriving with lofty delusions of uniqueness in space and time. Countless people came into this life suffering from the same megalomania; who thinks he is unique, irreplaceable, one-of-a-kind. There will be more people like this... forever. This is the story of such a time and such a man… this is the story of the Man Who Went to Destruction.
