Kurzbeschreibung
Welcome to Theme Planet, an entire alien world dedicated to insane rides, excessive hedonism and dangerous adventure. Operated by the Monolith Corporation, Theme Planet is the No. 1 destination for fun-seeking human holidaymakers Galaxy-Wide!
Amba Miskalov is an Anarchy Android, an assassin/torture model fitted with a Quantell Systems v4.7 KillChip. She is beautiful, merciless and deadly, and blends perfectly with her human superiors. Sent to Theme Planet on a dangerous assassination mission, Amba stumbles upon a plot to undermine and destroy Earth’s all-powerful Oblivion Government – and its Ministers of Joy.
But Amba is twisted, damaged and decadent – and this rebellion poses Amba a problem: to remain loyal to her creators and tormentors, to support the enemy – or annihilate them all.
Über den Autor
When kicked to describe himself, Andy Remic claims to have a love of extreme sports, kickass bikes and happy nurses. Once a member of an elite Combat K squad, he has retired from military service and claims to be a cross between an alcoholic Indiana Jones and a bubbly Lara Croft, only without the breasts. Remic lives in Lincolnshire and likes to think lewdly about zombies.

Andy Remic beginnt mit diesem Roman eine neue Reihe von Military SciFi, diese Reihe spielt ebenfalls in der bekannten Quad-Gal, wo auch die Abenteuer der Combat-K Soldaten spielen.
In diesem Roman geht es einmal um den Polizisten Dexter Colls, der mit seiner Familie Urlaub auf Theme Planet machen möchte, einem Planeten, der einem gigantischen Vergnügungspark gleicht. Aber kaum dort angekommen verschwindet Dexters Familie und ern wird zum Gejagden von den Einheimischen des Planeten.
Gleichzeitig wird Amba, ein Anarchy-Android, auf Theme Planet geschickt, um mehrere wichtige Persönlichkeiten zu töten. Auch sie gerät schnell in Schwierigkeiten. Und dass die beiden sich unweigerlich über den Weg laufen, ist ja klar...
Wieder viel Action, sehr kreativ, der typische Andy Remic-Humor, aber kommt an die Combat-K Reihe nicht heran, das muss man klar sagen. Dennoch sein Geld wert. Und Teil 2 der Reihe soll im Frühjahr rauskommen.

Great Book
2. März 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Killer fast paced book, classic Andy Remic with loads of violence, completely over the top scenes and surroundings, and overall tongue planted firmly in cheek. If you dig the Combat-K stuff you'll like this. Still takes place in the same universe but with new characters. Good times!
Oh, and let's not kid ourselves. It's not 2001 A Space Odyssey or the cure for world hunger. It's a fun book, so what if others have down similar themes? Buy it.

THEME PLANET, A Novel of the Anarchy
by Andy Remic
Publisher: Solaris, 1st Edition (NOV, 2011)
Theme Planet is the first novel of a new series, The Anarchy, by Andy Remic, a prolific author of such science fiction/fantasy and military science fiction thrillers as Serial Killers, the Vampire Warlords series, Hardcore and Biohell (Combat-K Novels).
The novel teems with numerous scenes on Earth and on Theme Planet right out of recent movies like Aeon Flux or Ultraviolet. A lone female bio-engineered Anarchy Android assassin, Amba, with enhanced reflexes and augmented muscles, attacks and kills a host of guards and dim-witted cyborgs (SIMs).
During one of the first kill-fests, Amba shoots a ten year old girl and her mother, leaving the innocent bystanders sporting newly inflicted double-taps in their foreheads. These killings, unlike the others, continue to haunt Amba and play an important character-development role later in the novel.
The other major character, Dexter Colls, is a London policeman, part of the Police Urban Force (PUF) with a beautiful wife and two darling little girls, who decides to take his family on vacation to an ultimate Super-Disney amusement park: Theme Planet, a short starship hop away to another star system.
The plot continues in a manner similar to a Philip K. Dick story and a 1990 Oscar-winning sci-fi adventure film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. I cannot mention the title of the movie because that would be an unfair spoiler
The writing in Theme Planet is better than I expected. It is not just another grimy, cynical novel of urban decay and future dystopias. I found myself laughing many times at the utter inanity and grossness of the commercialized language. The two kids constantly demand such things as "Fatty Fat Burgers," "Hellhorror Pinkpunk Dolls" (compare the 2011 craze among the Kindergarten set for Draculina(tm) Dolls?) and rides on the A-Mazing five kilometer high roller coaster.
The novel contains graphic language and strong expletives. This is no-holds barred hilarious storytelling.

Total crap
22. Dezember 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is total crap. It's not even good bad fiction. It starts with a promising idea and totally botches it. The "augmented hero assaults evil theme park" has been done far better - read Overthrowing Heaven" by Mark L. Van Name. And, of course, there are the "Dream Park" books. The "warrior android with ethical dilemma" has been done far better - read "Crossover", by Joel Shepherd.
The plot makes no sense. The characters are one-dimensional. The scene building is lame. Amazingly, this isn't the author's first novel. How did this turkey get published?
