Publisher's summary
The planet was called Felicity. The name was a joke, except for those compelled to settle there. Inhabiting it were beings bred for thousands of years for a single purpose: to attack and kill. Jason knew this. But he also knew the planet on which he lived was moving toward certain disaster. And Felicity was the only spot in the universe where he and his companions could survive. He thought he had worked out the perfect plan. But what awaited him on Felicity went far beyond his wildest imagining.

On the planet Pyrrus, human colonists have fought a centuries-old war with the native life forms. These life forms adapt to human tactics and technology, evolving new species so rapidly that natives returning from even brief trips off planet must be carried in protective armor canisters from their ship to the safe buildings, where they will learn of the latest deadly threats.

Story
Sixty-five million years ago, a disastrous cataclysm eliminated three quarters of all life on Earth. Overnight, the age of dinosaurs ended. The age of mammals had begun. But what if history had happened differently? What if the reptiles had survived to evolve into intelligent life? In West of Eden, best-selling author Harry Harrison has created a rich, dramatic saga of a world where the descendants of the dinosaurs struggled with a clan of humans in a battle for survival.

Jan Kulozik was one of Earth's privileged elite. A brilliant young electronics engineer, he enjoyed all the blessings of a twenty-third-century civilization that survived global collapse and conquered the starts, unaware of the millions who slaved or starved to maintain his way of life. Then Jan met Sara, a beautiful agent of the rebel underground dedicated to smashing Earth's rigid caste system. Through her he discovered the truth behind the lies he'd been taught.

A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Skeeve is a magician’s apprentice (and a wanna-be thief) until an assassin’s bolt kills his master, Garkin. Along with Aahz, the green-scaled, purple-tongued demon and master magician summoned by Garkin, he sets out on a quest to get even. The road to vengeance is bound to prove rocky, however, because Skeeve can barely light a candle with his beginning magic, and Aahz has lost his own considerable magical abilities as a consequence of Garkin’s summoning spell.

As we learn more about the mechanisms of human behavior through evolutionary biology, neuroscience, anthropology, and other related fields, we're discovering just how intriguing the human species is.

they don't write sci Fi like this anymore
death world and by extension harry Harrison is hands down one of the greats of sci Fi. next to Edgar rice Burroughs H.P. Lovecraft, Isaac Asimov and Robert e Howard. the man's grasp on all things of the educated lends itself very well to the world's and universes he crafts at his finger tips and anyone who says otherwise has not read his books.

Good story bro!
This is a great scifi adventure story but I recommend starting with book 1 and 2.
The recording is great and the reader does a great job with the many voices.
I really wish they had the rest of the death world books.

Great Book
Awesome, Deathworld 1 is amazing 2 is great and 3 was incredible. much to my delight I've discovered there are 7 in total! 4 is a short story and the rest are written in tandem with Russian authors, unfortunately to my knowledge they have not yet been translated. Nothing against Rummel, aside from Metta, he was a great reader however after listening to Greg do the 1st two Deathworlds, I could never fully adapt to Rummel. I'm sad to hear of Greg's passing in 2002. I sure hope someone ends up translating the rest of the books, and gets it up on audible! I would love to hear those stories!

Classic Harrison
if you've read the first two books and enjoyed them you will have to continue on with this one anyway, so why are you reading reviews? it is as good as pervious offering. Some parts don't hold up well, but then it's been better than 50 years and society has changed a great deal. if you read the originals this is a nice walk down memory lane, and is still a fun and well paced story.
