Synopsis
Barrington J. Bayley, a distinctive voice in speculative fiction, presents this intriguing fantasy novel. 'Collison With Chronos And The Fall Of Chronopolis' immediately evokes a narrative rich with epic scope and temporal intrigue.
Published in 1989, this 384-page novel promises readers a journey into a world where the very fabric of time, personified by 'Chronos', becomes an antagonist, and a significant temporal metropolis, 'Chronopolis', faces its ultimate decline.
- Confronting Chronos: The title's first half, 'Collison With Chronos', signals a profound engagement with the concept of time itself, suggesting a narrative where characters must grapple with temporal forces or entities.
- The Demise of a Time-City: Complementing this, 'The Fall Of Chronopolis' points to a grand, possibly catastrophic, event concerning a city intrinsically linked to time, promising large-scale conflict and world-altering consequences.
As a first edition paperback from 1989, this work by Barrington J. Bayley holds particular interest for collectors of vintage fantasy and speculative fiction. Bayley's unique narrative approach ensures that this tale of temporal conflict and urban decline remains a compelling read for those who appreciate imaginative and thought-provoking storytelling.
