Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Man the Tech-Men Made" by Fox B. Holden is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story centers around Jon Kane, a young Earth-descendant who is caught in a dystopian universe ruled by a powerful alliance known as the Intergalactic Technical Alliance (ITA). As he grapples with charges of heresy and technological rebellion, he finds himself pursued across worlds, grappling with themes of power, knowledge, and survival in a galaxy that fears innovation. The opening of the book immerses the reader in Kane's desperate escape through the harsh desert of Procyon, where he is apprehended by local authorities. The narrative quickly shifts to his trial, revealing his background and the technological aspirations that put him at odds with the oppressive regime of the ITA. Despite his age, Kane's intelligence and ingenuity shine through as he admits to creating forbidden tools and attempting to repair a malfunctioning vehicle, actions that label him a renegade. As he faces the grim prospect of execution, he is unexpectedly rescued by Majtech B-Haaq, who sees potential in Kane's skills. This encounter signals the beginning of a tumultuous journey through a galaxy in conflict, setting the stage for Kane's struggle against both the ITA and his own burgeoning identity as a creator and a rebel.
