Opis

These two novellas are strange companions indeed. Wimble Lord depicts one man's fight for survival while the world around him is on the brink of extinction. What sets Wimble Lord apart from other 'end-of-the-world' sagas are his mad recollections of a futuristic civilization long since past. Emerging from his bomb shelter, he is confronted by a desert that bears a jungle of giant fruits and swarms of migratory, other-worldly insects. Pieces of Humanity is part fantasy/fairytale straight out of Mozart's opera, The Magic Flute. 'The Magic Flute' himself carries the reader on a flight through time that unlocks the mysteries of existence as he is pursued by protagonists evE and Trash McKay in the hopes that they alone can possess his eternal secrets.
