Cage Of Souls Av Adrian Tchaikovsky

<p><b>Humanity clings to life on a dying Earth in an epic, far-future science fiction novel from an award-winning author. </b><br>The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, <b>Shadrapar</b>, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls. Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a <b>museum, a midden, an asylum, a prison</b> on a world that is ever more alien to humanity. <br><br>Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is <b>Stefan Advani</b>: rebel, outlaw, prisoner, survivor. This is his testament, an account of the journey that took him into the blazing desolation of the western deserts; that transported him east down the river and imprisoned him in the verdant hell of the jungle''s darkest heart; that led him deep into the labyrinths and caverns of the underworld. He will meet with monsters, madman, mutants. <br><br><b>The question is, which one of them will inherit this Earth?</b></p>
