Publisher Description
QUEST AMID FUTURITY'S RUINS--
What was the strange impetus that drove a group of four widely different humans to embark on a fear-filled journey across a forbidden sea to a legendary land?
This was Earth still, but the Earth of a future terribly changed after a planet-searing disaster, a planet of weird cults, mutated beasts, and people who were not always entirely human. As for the four who made up that questing party, they included a woman who was either a goddess, a witch, or both, a four-armed boy whose humanity was open to question, and two more men with equally "wild" talents.
The story of their voyage, of the power-wielding "jewels" they sought, of the atomic and post-atomic terrors they encountered, is a remarkable science-fiction Odyssey of the days to come.
Customer Reviews
Jewels of Aptor
This is the first book written by the author, when he was 18 or so. It's not as rich and complex as his later work but since he is one of the best writers in any genre its still one of the better more interesting science fiction books you will come across. It's mysterious and intriguing, the answers are always just beyond your grasp.
