Product Description

Book Description
Brian Aldiss' highly inventive space opera is a mind-expanding range of songs and science that takes us, twisting and turning, through a cornucopia of intergalactic merriment and melodrama. Eccentric characters burst into full-throated song with each meandering plot. "REVIEW: 'A dazzling tour-de-force, and all the more so for the good sense that buoys up its froth of horror, farce and scientific inventiveness' (Oxford Mail) "REVIEW: 'Ultimate Aldiss, frantic activity in the upper s.f. ionosphere which offers some wild entertainment...' (The Guardian) AUTHBIO: Brian Wilson Aldiss is one of the most important voices in science fiction writing today. He wrote his first novel while working as a bookseller in Oxford. Shortly afterwards he wrote his first work of science fiction and soon gained international recognition. Adored for his innovative literary techniques, evocative plots and irresistible characters, he became a Grand Master of Science Fiction in 1999. Brian Aldiss recently celebrated his seventy-fifth birthday and is still writing to ardent applause. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
