Description

Armchair fiction presents extra large paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. "Intrigue on the Upper Level" is a brilliant, forgotten classic by Thomas Temple Hoyne that involves a desperate struggle for power in 2050 A. D. James Manse lived on the shore of Lake Michigan with thousands of other homeless souls in the shadows of the magnificent structures of the Upper Level. Like so many others of his ilk, he longed for the opportunity to advance his position in life and somehow gain entrance to those spectacular, lofty structures that were so near, yet so unreachable. Then one day a simple act of heroism thrust Jimmy Manse from the lowest reaches of humanity to the highest pinnacle of human extravagance. He soon found himself in the company of the Master, the most powerful man on Earth. But in this ruthless dictator he saw a man enveloped by fear, desperately striving to stave off a massive rebellion that seemed impossible to stop. "Intrigue on the Upper Level" is a forgotten gem of futuristic science fiction, laced with thought provoking themes, intertwined with nail-biting action and intrigue-and not seen in print since 1934.
