This science fiction novel experiments with the theory that time runs backwards and the past, rather than the future, lies in store for mankind. The central character, trained as an assassin, is haunted by a phantom-like woman who symbolizes a future more distant than his own. Brian Aldiss has been the recipient of several Hugo and Nebula Awards in the USA, a Kurd Lasswitz Award from West Germany, a Jules Verne Award from Sweden and a British Science Fiction Award. His most recent books are the "Helliconia" trilogy and "Trillion Year Spree: The History of Science Fiction", which won the 1987 Hugo Award as the best work of non-fiction.
Industry Reviews
After several centuries of mindless mind-hopping we, along with hero Edward Bush, find out what Cryptozoic's all about. That era we thought was safely tucked away in back archeologist's archives is actually our future. Seems as if we'd got it all wrong, instead of reaching for the stars we're rushing back to the swamps. The sun sets in the East, we end up in the womb etc. Interesting speculations but even old Edward ends up pronounced crazy with an incestuous mother fixation no less. backward naturally Just we're maybe Or.?? (Kirkus Reviews)
