21st-century revolutionary Leo finds himself at the End of Time, surrounded by decadent sorcerers whose childlike incomprehension is his worst nightmare. How to be effective when consequence is removed? What can have meaning when everything is transformed into fashion? Can love exist here? Leo storms through this lurid land in search of meaning, a cause, and a meal he can recognise.
A NEW ADVENTURE IN MICHAEL MOORCOCK’S ‘END OF TIME’ UNIVERSE
“The most original and most consciousness-altering living writer in the English language, not to mention one of the funniest.” - Alan Moore
Steve Aylett has been described as “utterly original” (SFX), “an unstoppable master of space and time ” (Asimov ’s), “ the most original voice in the literary scene” (Michael Moorcock) and “ the coolest writer alive today ” (Starburst).
“one of the most unique and original voices I’ve read in SF/ Fantasy fiction in a long time” - Phil Beresford
“a phenomenal talent” – Trashotron
“Aylett has made a career out of redefining the boundaries of science fiction - and sanity.” - Barnes & Noble Spotlight Feature
"the sheer exuberance and inventiveness that can take a sentence, twist it through an unfathomable angle, and layer on meanings and associations that enrich the text. There's a real sense of Aylett's joy in playing with words, a sense of fun, that is still mingled with acute observation." - Concatenation
