«Le Maître du hasard» is the science fiction novel by Robert Silverberg, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback (248 pages, in French).
Lew Nichols, an expert in predictions, advises Paul Quinn, future president of the United States. When Carjaval appears, a man who knows the future with absolute certainty and even the hour of his death, Nichols is offered the chance to inherit that gift. The idea of a future without alternatives or free will fills him with vertigo.
The novel was originally published in 1975 under the title «The Stochastic Man»; the present French edition of 1990 uses the translation by René Lathière.
For science fiction readers interested in dilemmas about fate, power and the prediction of the future.
Robert Silverberg is a prolific American science fiction author and editor. He is a multiple winner of both Hugo and Nebula Awards, a member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame, and a Grand Master of SF since 2004.
