As the war on terror gets out of hand, Ibrahim Chess, the last sane man left in the city state of Oolong Morblock, struggles to resist the inexorable pressures which are pushing him inexorably in the direction of taking on the role of terrorist mastermind.
This is an SF fantasy novel, an alternative reality novel, but it is as realistic as the headlines in the daily newspaper. This is a tough, uncompromising novel which is written in and for the age of terror. Hugh Cook, author of the ten-volume Chronicles of an Age of Darkness series, applies all his skill, talent and imagination in this book, To Find And Wake The Dreamer, the ultimate fantasy novel. |
