"A fast-spinning firework of characters and ideas – a 21st Century novella with a Golden Age glow." – Ken MacLeod
Corbyn, a sentient ramship, is in a race against time. He must slow from near lightspeed in order to return his precious human cargo, PurLeeDah, to her homeworld - a process that requires thousands of years...
Little does Corbyn realise that below him, on PurLeeDah's homeworld – as civilisation collapses and then starts to build again – his orbital passage has been noted and he has come to be worshipped as a god.
Simon Morden has crafted a stunning tale of hard SF meeting socio-political development head-on, with human ambitions and emotions at its core. A follow-up to his critically acclaimed novella At the Speed of Light, this delivers in every regard.
