  • Dravci mého století (1965, Хищные вещи века) je vědeckofantastický román ruských sovětských spisovatelů bratrů Strugackých. Román se odehrává ve 21. století a úzce souvisí s tzv. Bykovovskou trilogií, neboť jeho hlavní hrdina Ivan Žilin vystupuje v druhém a třetím díle této trilogie, tj. v příbězích Cesta na Amalteu (1960, Путь на Амальтею) a Tachmasib letí k Saturnu (1962, Стажёры). Román je napsán jako kritika tehdejší západní konzumní společností, ale popis bezduchého způsobu života většiny lidí v zemi, kde se příběh odehrává, je aktuální i dnes. (cs)

  • De hoogste verrukking is een sciencefictionroman van Arkadi en Boris Stroegatski in Nederland pas uitgegeven in 1979. Het was een poging van A.W. Bruna Uitgevers om Russische sciencefiction populair te maken in Nederland. De poging faalde, want in de Bruna SF-serie verscheen alleen nog de verhalenbundel Mag ik Nina even? voordat in 1980 het Bruna SF-project geheel werd gestaakt. (nl)

  • Le cose predatorie del secolo (in russo: Хищные вещи века?, traslitterato: Chiščnye vešči veka) è un romanzo di fantascienza dei fratelli Strugackij pubblicato in centomila copie nel 1965 da Molodaja Gvardia. Dopo una lunga pausa, fu pubblicato ancora nel 1980 dall'editore Azernešr insieme al romanzo È difficile essere un dio (tiratura cinquantamila più altre quarantamila aggiuntive). Da allora, le edizioni sono riprese e si susseguono piuttosto regolarmente.Secondo Stephen W. Potts Le cose predatorie del secolo «anticipa sorprendentemente il movimento americano cyberpunk della metà degli anni ottanta: come nel cyberpunk, uno stile hard-boiled raffigura una società appariscente, dominata da potenti facoltose istituzioni e dedita all'uso di droghe, stimolazione elettronica del sistema nervo (it)

  • The Final Circle of Paradise (Russian: Хищные вещи века, romanized: Khishnye veshi veka, lit. 'Predatory Things of the Century') is a science fiction novel by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky (also spelled Strugatski or Strugatskii) set in the first half of the 21st century. It was first published in the USSR in 1965 and the first English edition, translated by Leonid Renen, was published by DAW books in 1976. The literal English translation of the original Russian title is "Predatory Things of Our Times". This is a line from Andrei Voznesensky's poem Beatnik's Monologue. Machine Riot (1961). This novel is a sequel of sorts to an earlier Strugatsky novel Space Apprentice (1962). At the end of Space Apprentice, flight engineer Ivan Zhilin gives up space travel for Earth – where "the most important things are" – to make the solar system a better place for the young people of the world. The Final Circle of Paradise takes place a little less than ten years after Space Apprentice, in a medium-sized seaside resort city somewhere in Europe. In the intervening time, he has been working for the security service of the World Council, an international governing body similar to but far more powerful than the United Nations. A few years before, Zhilin fought as part of an international brigade to put down a Fascist uprising in the same city where this story is set, reminiscent of the Soviet experience during the Second World War. This was supposedly one of the "final" wars before universal disarmament, where the last of the fascists were finally defeated. Like other Strugatsky novels, the setting is an internationalized future of advanced technology and world peace. There is no iron curtain, cold war, or arms race. Most of the world is permanently at peace, with the rest on the verge of being forcibly demilitarized. (en)
