Publisher Description

Seven billion years from now, long after the Sun has died and human life itself has become extinct, alien beings reincarnate humanity from our fossilized DNA drifting as debris in the void of deep space. We are reborn to serve as bait in a battle to the death between the Rimstalker, humankind's reanimator, and the zotl, horrific creatures who feed vampire-like on the suffering of intelligent lifeforms.

Set in the artificial planetary system of Chalco-Doror, which is no more and no less than a vast cosmic machine, The Last Legends of Earth is a love story, a gripping saga of struggle against alien control, and an examination of the machinery of creation and destruction. Above all, it is world-building of the highest and grandest order, on a scale rarely seen in science fiction since the great works of Olaf Stapledon.

"Attanasio is a master wordsmith of the metaphysical and spiritual with a rudimentary foundation in complex transformations. The authors insight and imagination is wonderful!"

  • Overall Performance: 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5

    " Quite possibly the best science fiction book I have ever read. And that's saying a lot. Epic on a scale rarely attempted in a series, let alone a single novel. "

    " One of the craziest plots ever. Attanasio uses language beautifully. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " Although I liked the spiritual overtones (like the Tryl), the story-line of this book was so convoluted that it was easy to get lost. There are many characters and their stories get fragmented. Attanasio's Arthurian series had me spellbound. This book felt like heavy going. "

    " This is an interesting and enjoyable book. Way out there from a science stand point but not completely unbelievable. "
