Riassunto

The war against the Blight may be over, but revolutionary and hero Tom Corcorigan knows that an even greater force threatens Nulapeiron: the ominpotent, planet-consuming Anomaly, which has already absorbed billions of humans and alien beings into itself. Tom's association with Eemur's Head, the flensed remains of a powerful Seer, is changing him, bringing new enemies and allies into his life, while more of the true history of the Pilots (including the existence of their home in a universe no ordinary human being can experience: the shifting, living fractal city of Labyrinth) is revealed to him. But, almost without warning, the Anomaly is upon them, decimating Nulapeiron's labyrinthine subterranean realms. And of the survivors, only those commanded by Tom Corcorigan have the slightest chance against this awesome invader: for it seems only a Warlord who is no longer quite human can deliver humanity from darkness...

Su questo libro

Recensione:

"'Is it good? Of course it is. Meaney is one of the best authors of hard SF in the world at the moment, and he doesn't put a foot wrong here'" (SFX (5 stars))

"'Immensely satisfying...a genuinely impressive trilogy, which also shows how an already impressive author can grow with his work'" (STARBURST (5 stars))

"'Brilliantly fuses SF with elements of fantasy, and chucks in some theoretical physics and martial arts action for good measure. It's massively ambitious - the first essential book of the year'" (SFX (2005 PREVIEW))

"'A stunning hi-tech science-fiction series in a feudal setting, this is a welcome return from one of the UK's premier SF writers and brings to a close one of the most original series of the past ten years'" (BOOKS QUARTERLY)

"'Few characters in hard SF are more impressive...a fitting end to an intelligent and literate SF sequence'" (JON COURTENAY GRIMWOOD)

Descrizione del libro:
