Synopsis "Wakers (1) (The Side Step Trilogy) "

From the New York Times bestselling author of Enders Game comes a brand-new series following a teen who wakes up on an abandoned Earth to discover that he's a clone. Laz is a side-stepper: a teen with the incredible power to jump his consciousness to alternate versions of himself in parallel worlds. All his life, there was no mistake that a little side-stepping couldn't fix. Until Laz wakes up one day in a cloning facility on a seemingly abandoned Earth. Laz finds himself surrounded by hundreds of other clones, all dead, and quickly realizes that he too must be a clone of his original self. Laz has no idea what happened to the world he remembers as vibrant and bustling only yesterday, and he struggles to survive in the barren wasteland he's now trapped in. But the question that haunts him isn't why was he created, but instead, who woke him up...and why? There's only a single bright spot in Laz's new life: one other clone appears to still be alive, although she remains asleep. Deep down, Laz believes that this girl holds the key to the mysteries plaguing him, but if he wakes her up, she'll be trapped in this hellscape with him. This is one problem that Laz can't just side-step his way out of.

Orson Scott Card (nacido el 24 de agosto de 1951, en Richland, Washington) es un prolífico escritor estadounidense conocido principalmente por su obra de ciencia ficción. Ganó reconocimiento mundial con Ender’s Game y su secuela Speaker for the Dead, convirtiéndose en el único autor que recibió consecutivamente los prestigiosos premios Hugo y Nebula. Sus historias suelen explorar protagonistas dotados de capacidades extraordinarias que enfrentan decisiones éticas de gran peso.

Card también creó la notable serie de fantasía The Tales of Alvin Maker, ambientada en una versión alternativa de la frontera estadounidense, y ha incursionado en novelas de ambientación bíblica como la serie Women of Genesis. Su producción literaria abarca además thrillers, fantasía contemporánea, poesía, teatro y guiones, demostrando una versatilidad notable.

Además de su trabajo como novelista, ha dedicado parte de su carrera a la enseñanza: se desempeña como profesor en Southern Virginia University, ha impartido talleres y dirige un renombrado “campamento literario” anual para escritores emergentes. También ha actuado como juez en el concurso Writers of the Future, incentivando nuevas voces en la literatura fantástica.

Aunque su obra ha sido celebrada por su profundidad moral y narrativa envolvente, parte de su reputación pública también se ha visto marcada por controversias relacionadas con sus posturas personales. No obstante, su influencia en el género sigue siendo significativa.
