Welcome to Old North Australia, or Norstrilia, the only planet that has “stroon,” a substance that indefinitely delays aging in humans. Stroon is cultivated from huge, deformed sheep farmed by the wealthiest estate owners to ever exist in all of humanity’s existence.<\/p>

\u200bRod McBan is the last of one of the oldest and most honorable families on Norstrilia. But he himself has shortcomings that would normally have led to his death under the strict laws governing population control on a planet where immortality is cheap and imperfect citizens are ruthlessly “culled” to make way for more productive members of society.<\/p>

\u200bBut even McBan’s vaunted stature in the society is not enough to save him from the basest of human emotions\u2014jealousy\u2014as the enmity of a former friend forces him to escape to Earth, where McBan’s unprecedented fortune quickly makes him a magnet for all manner of crooks and revolutionaries.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Bienvenidos al viejo norte de Australia, o Nostrilia, el \u00fanico planeta que tiene stroon, una sustancia de retrasa indefinidamente el envejecimiento humano. El stroon se obtiene de enormes ovejas deformadas que forman parte de los reba\u00f1os de los humanos m\u00e1s ricos que hayan existido jam\u00e1s.<\/p>

Rod McBan es el \u00faltimo de una de las m\u00e1s antiguas y honorables familias de Norstrilia. Pero \u00e9l mismo tiene problemas que deber\u00edan haberle causado la muerte seg\u00fan las estrictas leyes que gobiernan el control de la poblaci\u00f3n en el planeta, donde la inmortalidad es barata y los ciudadanos imperfectos son adaptados para convertirlos en miembros productivos de la sociedad.<\/p>

Pero incluso la posici\u00f3n de McBan en la sociedad no es suficiente para salvarle de las emociones humanas m\u00e1s primordiales, como la envidia, cuando un grupo de antiguos amigos le fuerzan a huir a la Tierra, donde su cuantiosa fortuna le convierte en un im\u00e1n para todo tipo de criminales y revolucionarios.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
