Pierre Bordage is a French
science fiction
author. He won the Cosmos 2000 prize in 1996 for his novel La Citadelle Hyponéros.
Pierre Bordage is one of France's best-selling science fiction writers. With more than 20 novels published in just over a decade, his books often touch on the spiritual aspects of society, in a style that combines the best of classic adventure stories with reflection on the future and the present.
Bordage's books are best-sellers in France, and have been translated in several European countries (Russia, Italia, Spain, Slovenia, Romania...) but there still remains the difficulty of getting published in English, especially in the United States.
He was winner of the 2008 Cezam Prix Littéraire Inter CE
for Porteur d’âmes.
Les derniers hommes (the last men) : A near future, after the third world war. In a Europe devastated by chemical, nuclear and genetic pollution, the rare intact resources are shared between nomadic tribes who have taken charge of the exploitation of a specific element. Solman the lame man from the Aquarius tribe – who discovers and controls water sources -, has a gift of clairvoyance : this gift puts him apart from everybody, as people do not trust him. Except the guerisseuse Raima, the mysterious kadija and an old scientist of the old world who accompany him on his quest to escape the apocalypse which seems to menace the last men.
