First Volume of 'The Book Of The Long Sun'.
The new science fiction masterwork by the award-winning author of 'The Book Of The New Sun' series.
In a weird far future, a vast starship moves through space. To its human inhabitants, remote descendants of the First Settlers, the Whorl is the only home they have ever known: a world scorched by the harsh rays of the Long Sun and haunted by ancient "gods" who appear infrequently on scattered screens to deliver enigmatic messages. A world of pervasive, sinister mystery in which Patera Silk, a young augur of the decaying city of Viron, is drawn into a shifting maze of nightmarish intrigue at the start of his strange journey to an unguessable destiny . . .
'Nightside The Long Sun' begins a multi-volume science fiction epic of outstanding power by one of the world's greatest imaginative novelists.
