Its author [Yoss] is one of the most celebrated-and controversial-Cuban writers of science fiction. Reminiscent of Douglas Adams-but even more so, the satire of Rabelais and Swift. -The Washington PostWith the playfulness and ingenuity of Douglas Adams, the Cuban science-fiction master Yoss delivers a space opera of intergalactic proportions with Super Extra Grande, the winner of the twentieth annual UPC Science Fiction Award in 2011.In a distant future in which Latin Americans have pioneered faster-than-light space travel, Dr. Jan Amos Sangan Dongo has a job with large and unusual responsibilities: hes a veterinarian who specializes in treating enormous alien animals. Mountain-sized amoebas, multisex species with bizarre reproductive processes, razor-nailed, carnivorous humanoid hunters: Dr. Sangan has seen it all. When a colonial conflict threatens the fragile peace between the galaxys seven intelligent species, he must embark on a daring mission through the insides of a gigantic creature and find two swallowed ambassadors-who also happen to be his competing love interests.Funny, witty, raunchy, and irrepressibly vivacious, Super Extra Grande is a rare specimen in the richly parodic tradition of Cuban science fiction, and could only have been written by a Cuban heavy-metal rock star with a biology degree: the inimitable Yoss.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68217181765920,"sku":"NEW1632060566","price":12.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71NNlNaNA2L.jpg?v=1794290894","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/super-extra-grande-cuban-science-fiction-1632060566","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
