| Omschrijving | Essef - Fred Saberhagen's Berserker series is a space opera in which robotic self-replicating machines intend to destroy all organic life. These berserkers, a doomsday weapon left over from an interstellar war 50,000 years ago, are killer spaceships furnished with machine intelligence, operating from asteroid-sized berserker bases where they are capable of building more Berserkers and auxiliary machines. The name is a reference to human berserkers, reflecting the Berserker's violence and singleness of purpose.
The Berserker stories - many of the books are short story collections - describe humanity's fight against the berserkers. The term "humanity" refers to all sentient life in the Galaxy, emphasizing the common threat the berserkers pose toward all forms of life. Homo sapiens, referred to as Earth-descended or ED humans, or as Solarians, are the only sentient species aggressive enough to put up a fight. |
