Product Details


Product Description

From Library Journal

Edward Davis travels through time to ancient Egypt in search of a pair of renegade time travelers in the latest novella by sf veteran Silverberg. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of an almost mystical civilization, Davis struggles with his sense of duty and his growing affection for a young slave girl. Silverberg's mastery of the art of storytelling is perhaps most evident in his short fiction, as he demonstrates how much can be told through nuance and implication. Recommended for large sf or paperback collections.

A rookie with Time Service, Edward Davis goes back in time to to the ancient city of Thebes in Eighteenth Dynasty Egypt, where he is befriended by a beautiful Egyptian slave girl and where he learns the trade of the embalmers. Reprint.

1.0 out of 5 stars Mercifully Short, April 7 2000
By Toni (Pittsburgh) - See all my reviews
For themes which inherently inspire curiosity and mystery (time travel and the culture of ancient egypt) this book manages to be nothing but a dull and repetitive disappointment - despite its length. This book gets one star for its sheer brevity - the author thankfully subjects us to only 116 pages of pure emptiness. The characters are flat with the motivation of two year olds and the plot is rudiculous and almost non-existant. Add in a sprinkling of clumsy, misplaced sexuality and you've got a truly repulsive story on your hands. Do yourself a favor and skip this vapid tale.
