AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'When we die, we who lived it, we who ultimately survived . who will really remember? For all the volumes written, all the minutely researched accounts of events. Deep down at the core of their understanding, who will know? Who will even remember how it all began? Deucalion a hundred years after the Revolution is a model society, and life is good. But all that is about to change. Death arrives one day on the C-ship Pandora, and suddenly no one is safe. Over night, the old rules no longer apply. When every breath and every decision is a matter of life and death, when every friend is a potential threat, and the only one you can count on is yourself, how deep does your civilisation really run? In his long-anticipated sequel to the multi-award-winning Deucalion, Brian Caswell takes us a century further into his vision of Humanity's future.' (Publisher's blurb)
