The Dancers at the End of Time (S.F. MASTERWORKS)

Product Information

The people of this world are generally entirely decadent, vapid, and have no conception of morality. In terms of averaged enjoyment per page, this should be more like two stars, but I'm giving it three because the first book really is worth reading, and because it includes a character named "Sweet Orb Mace. It appears to go beyond taste," said Jherek, picking at a piece of bark and making it thrum gently against the bole of the tree.

Jherek is sentenced to death, as the case against him is unequivocal, but he cannot understand why all the people around him are so upset; inhabitants of the End of Time are immortal, and for them death is merely transitory. If you like some romance and humor with your fantasy, quirky aliens, and a civilization of decadent and self-indulgent immortals, you will enjoy this wonderful and unusual story.This book contained the usual concepts and bizarre ideas and really got in my head, for example, the idea that time is a fixed, limited event so if you travel far enough into the future you end up at the beginning of time! Following a masquerade with the theme of Childhood, Werther is passionately overcome and engages in sexual intercourse with Catherine. In 2011, Rebel at the End of Time, another prequel to An Alien Heat and written by Steve Aylett, was published by PS Publishing. This major new release from the Greg Foat Group sees the celebrated jazz quintet making the most of the acoustics of an ancient church, accompanied by a full ensemble of supporting musicians. Then, up in the sky - it's a bird, it's a plane, no, it's the Duke of Queens in his unique air car the shape of a huge hen.

I found it amusing, but cannot imagine that more of it has broken enough new ground to be worth further effort. The time in the school is constantly recycled by a robot nanny so old she has started to break down, and as a result is recycling the same week repeatedly.Werther is the only other character from the end of time who was born, rather than created through the use of power rings.
