BACK IN ACTION

Old soldiers never die… except inside, when they lack a reason to live. Old soldier Wes Stauer is dying inside, from sheer lack of purpose.

And then comes the knock on the door: ”Our leader’s son and heir has been kidnapped. We don’t know where he is. We need you to get him back for us. The people who have him are numerous, warlike, and well armed. But money is no object.”

And then old soldiers-sailors and airmen, too-stop fading away and come back into sharp focus.

Nightside the Long Sun is the beginning of the science-fiction masterpiece from Gene Wolfe Book of the Long Sun.

Life on The Whorl, and the struggles and triumphs of Patera Silk to satisfy the demands of the gods, will captivate listeners yearning for something new and different in science fiction, for the magic of the future.

Enormous in breadth and scope, Wolfe’s ambitious new work opens out into a world of wonders, of gods and humans, aliens and machines, and mysterious adventures far out in space and deep inside the human spirit. It is set on a ship-world whose origins are shrouded in legend, ruled by strange gods who appear infrequently to their worshippers on large screens, and peopled by a human race changed by eons of time, yet familiar.
