Book by Sagan Nick

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

The final chapter in the acclaimed Idlewild trilogy - 'a rollercoaster ride of fusion fiction'Neil Gaiman

A small group of humans has survived Black Ep, the apocalyptic pandemic that ravaged the world. These survivors start to revive others who'd been cryogenically preserved in anticipation of a future free of the disease.

At first, all agree on the basic principles of this new world: how lucky they are to have survived, how they're all in this together, how they should look out for each other, learn from the past and build a better future.

As more sleepers are roused, there are some - inevitably - who disagree. Those who have knowledge of power do not intend to wait politely in line and this new utopia starts to fracture. But one more surprise awaits the survivors: it comes from a very very long way away, and it will transform the future for everyone in this post-plague, perhaps even post-human, world...

'A fun and entertaining read, but also startling original...brings the series to an undeniably satisfying and triumphant conclusion'Sci Fi Weekly

'Elegant SF, dark and haunting, with characters who linger in the memory long after the last page is turned'SF Site

Présentation de l'éditeur

A small group of humans has survived the apocalyptic epidemic called Black Ep that ravaged the world. These survivors start to wake others who'd been cryogenically preserved to await a future when the disease might be cured. At first, everyone agrees on the basic principles of this new world - how lucky they are to have survived, how they're all in this together, how they should look out for each other, learn from the past and build a better world...

But inevitably, as more sleepers are roused, there are some who disagree. People who have knowledge of power are waking up to a new world, and they do not intend to wait politely in line. But as this new utopian starts to fracture, one more surprise lies in wait for the survivors. It comes from a very very long way away indeed - and its impact is such that it will transform the future for everyone in this post-plague, perhaps even post-human, world...
