In the beginning there was the Galactic Organisation and Dominions. Its worlds numbered tens of thousands of star systems, and expeditions were constantly exploring other galaxies to spread the seed of mankind. —The Galactic Chronicles.
Violence, greed, and discontent were threatening to disrupt the Galactic Organisation and Dominions. The Terran experiment had failed, Atlantis was destroyed, and the evil in the Sirii system was growing stronger. Until at last the judgement came from the Great mind of Haven... the judgement that shocked the universe and sealed the fate of a world...
Lemmus: Beyond the Outer Mirr is the second novel in a time odyssey by Julian Jay Savarin, a science fiction epic that is as imaginative as Dune, as thought-provoking as 2001, and as convincing as Chariots of the Gods.
Have read a long time ago, have been trying to obtain another copy to re-read for awhile now. This book has everything, GOD, how the world was created, evolution, the lot, all wrapped up by GOD. Just a different idea on the whole idea of the big bang, evolution and creation all in one book, covering the lot. Want to re-read.
I enjoyed the first and third parts of this book but was very frustrated by parts of the middle. The whole sequence with Alda and Kizeesh should have tied more into the main story, and I was expecting a lot more about the bible. Some of it didn’t make a ton of sense and the character of the princess of Centaurus was ridiculous, it feel like he just brings in a new “most powerful being in the universe” when needed and the drops her when he’s done. Also she never reckoned with the consequences of ultimate power and that was glaringly missing. She’s billed as all loving and kind but then all powerful and randomly tortures kizeesh? Big contradictions here. The third phase of the story got good again though. Alda was also a great character. So many avenues could have been explored and ultimately this was a work of pessimism that contradicts my internal beliefs, I try to set that aside but ultimately I am who I am. Julian Jay Savarin Seems to be a pessimist, then a man. In that order. Smart guy though.
