Blade Runner 2: The Edge of Human
Overview
Set in a futuristic urban jungle, Ridley Scott's vision of Philip K. Dick's 21st Century Los Angeles, Blade Runner, was a masterpiece. K.W. Jeter's novel The Edge of Human returns to the world of blade runner Rick Deckard with a sequel of haunting power and suspense.
Deckard has fled Los Angeles with Rachael, his beautiful replicant lover. Rachael, like all her kind, has a built in life span of four years. In a rural hideaway they ration their time together and Deckard spends months just watching Rachael sleep in cryogenic suspension. They think themselves safe from the Tyrell Corporation - who want every replicant dead - until Deckard is snatched from this haven.
Back in the decaying, labyrinthine sprawl of L.A. Deckard's blade runner skills keep him alive but always one step behind his mysterious abductors. A visit to his old boss only sinks him deeper into a mire of lies and confusion. Who is the mysterious sixth replicant everyone now wants dead? Why is he facing a murder rap for taking out Pris, one of the original five? Why is ex-blade runner Dave Holden stalking his every move? Should he trust Sarah Tyrell, who now runs her uncle's corporation, just because she's the living and breathing image of his beloved Rachael?
The Edge of Human - adds a new dimension to one of the most enduring of sf stories, recreating the dark brooding intensity and relentless suspense of the original.
K.W. Jeter is one of the most respected science fiction writers working today. He is the acknowledged heir to the spirit of Philip K. Dick whose novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep was the basis for the movie Blade Runner. In The Edge of Human Jeter resolves many of the discrepancies between the movie and the novel upon which it was based.
