Appendixes: Some Notes on "the Tanu Song"; The Tanu Song, Map of Northwestern Europe During the Pliocene Epoch. The dust jacket has some wear, chips and soiling. Volume I in the Saga of Pliocene Exile. When a one-way time tunnel to Earth's distant past, specifically six million B.C., was discovered by folks on the Galactic Milieu, every misfit for light-years around hurried to pass through it. Each sought his own brand of happiness. But none could have guessed what awaited them. Julian Clare May (July 10, 1931 October 17, 2017) was an American science fiction, fantasy, horror, science and children's writer who also used several literary pseudonyms. She is best known for her Saga of Pliocene Exile (Saga of the Exiles in the United Kingdom) and Galactic Milieu Series books. She became involved in science fiction fandom in her late teens, publishing the fanzine Interim Newsletter for a time. She sold her first professional fiction, a short story called "Dune Roller", in 1950 to John W. Campbell's Astounding Science Fiction; it appeared in 1951, under the name "J. C. May", accompanied by her original illustrations. She met her future husband, Ted Dikty, later that year at a convention in Ohio. May chaired the Tenth World Science Fiction Convention in Chicago in 1952, becoming the first woman to chair a worldcon, and married Dikty in January, 1953. After selling one more short story, "Star of Wonder" (to Thrilling Wonder Stories in 1953), she dropped out of the science fiction field for several years. Having moved to Oregon in the early 1970s, May began to get reacquainted with the world of fandom; in 1976, she attended Westercon 29 in Los Angeles, her first science-fiction convention in many years. She made an elaborate diamond-encrusted "space suit" for the convention's costume party, which started her thinking about what sort of character would wear such a suit. She soon began accumulating a folder of ideas for what would become the Galactic Milieu Series, and in 1978 she began writing what would become the Saga of Pliocene Exile. The first book in that series, The Many-Colored Land, was published in 1981 by Houghton Mifflin. In 1987, she continued the series with Intervention, finally followed in 1992 (with a change in publisher) by the Galactic Milieu Series: Jack the Bodiless, Diamond Mask and Magnificat. In August 2015, she was inducted into the First Fandom Hall of Fame in a ceremony at the 73rd World Science Fiction Convention. The Many-Colored Land is a science fiction novel by American author Julian May, published in 1981. It is the first book of the Saga of Pliocene Exile (known as the Saga of the Exiles in the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth). The novel sets the series up by introducing the story of each of the characters. The main purpose of the book is to provide information for the rest of the series, only beginning the main storyline in its final part. Derived from a Kirkus review: Part I of The Saga of Pliocene Exile, these are the diverting adventures of a group of social malcontents exiled via a one-way timewarp to Earth's Pliocene epoch. They arrive to find that a powerful but decadent alien race with paranormal abilities, the Tanu, have local politics pretty well sewn up: they easily enslave all the unsuspecting newcomers, the women becoming Tanu breeders, the men serfs or lordlings in a feudal economy. Another genetically similar alien race, the Firvulag, and a few humans, the Lowlifes, have evaded Tanu control and survive in a hole-in-corner fashion. Then, however, some of the group, escaping from the Tanu's clutches, meet up with Madame Guderian--who has persuaded the Lowlifes and Firvulag into an uneasy alliance (as part of a master plan to defeat the Tanu) and now packs the group off on a perilous quest to seek out ancient weapons and machines. And there's a final bloody battle as the alliance attacks the c. N° de réf. du vendeur 89520
