Plague of Pythons

by Frederik Pohl

In a world ravaged by self-destructing militaries and a mysterious plague that corrupts minds, Chandler is branded a 'Hoaxer' after committing a horrific act under the plague's influence. Exiled and ostracized, he embarks on a journey to find the source of the plague. Unraveling a shocking truth, Chandler faces a moral dilemma: how to confront a threat that transcends individual guilt and demands a collective response. This gripping dystopian tale explores the nature of control, the limits of human agency, and the price of survival in a world on the brink.
