Description

The world is finally recovering from the effects of pandemic, war, and economic collapse. Disease is still rife, people still starve, and the peace is fragile. Yet humanity still strives for the stars, taking its first steps along the path of interplanetary exploration. And with them, both on and off the battlefields, robots have an increasing role. Not everyone is happy with this, including some of the machines. This novel is based, with permission, on an original story and audio-script by Sheriden Starr with additions by Lee Potts of Omenopus. It is not a straightforward retelling of the story recounted in the album (The Archives -- Omenopus -- Monty Maggot Records -- MMCD009). It is an interpretation of events, an offering of back story, and an exploration of some of the dilemmas posed by the original tale.

Author Biography:

Graeme K. Talboys was born in Hammersmith. He has had nine works of non-fiction published (on museum education, drama, and matters spiritual) and written more than a score of novels. The first of those (written when he was seventeen) was lost on a train. The next two (written in his early twenties) he wishes had been. Thankfully, hes had considerably more success with writing since then with short stories, poems, and many novels published. His previous jobs have included market gardener, shelf stacker, pot boy, sandwich maker, and factory floor maintenance operative (broom provided). As an adult his first job was acting, followed by teaching Drama and English. Some of his pupils still speak to him. He later worked in museums where he felt right at home among the ancient, broken objects. He now lives in Scotland.
