Extract: I vaguely remember a TV series called "The Immortals" back from the '70s. It was listed in the TV Guide as science fiction, but I remember being quite disappointed by it being more of an adventure/hunt down a guy show. In doing my research on James Gunn for the Grand Master challenge, finding what little there was in our library, I thought, what the heck, I'll try this book, it's probably better than the TV series. I was thrilled to find that the book is so much deeper than I expected, telling a story of greed and despair in a near future where only the rich can afford health care, while the rest go without or become forever indebted to hospitals. Hey, it's a story about the present!...
