About the author

Brian Michael Stableford was a British science fiction writer who published more than 70 novels. His earlier books were published under the name Brian M. Stableford, but more recent ones have dropped the middle initial and appeared under the name Brian Stableford. He also used the pseudonym Brian Craig for a couple of very early works, and again for a few more recent works. The pseudonym derives from the first names of himself and of a school friend from the 1960s, Craig A. Mackintosh, with whom he jointly published some very early work.

Good scifi but no golden age

Good but abrupt trilogy finish . Crappy cosmology.Hero’s low self esteem got tedious will read second Sandman slim before I try his other series ; Hooded swan and Dedalus…

Not bad. Interesting material, feels like a good continuation of the previous installments with a pretty different take on the history of the universe than one might normally figure. Would read other things by the same author.

Weird but good. Read the first two volumes first.
