The sixth volume of Brian Stableford's future history concludes the series and also refers back to its beginnings. Through five earlier volumes," Inherit the Earth, Architects of Emortality, The Fountains of Youth, The Cassandra Complex, "and "Dark Ararat," Stableford has mapped out for us in engaging stories the wonderful and sometimes disturbing world of the next thousand years, on Earth, throughout the solar system, and to worlds beyond, with emphasis on huge sociological changes and extraordinary alterations in the biological life of humans. It is one of the most detailed and plausible and fascinating projections in all of science fiction. Now, in "The Omega Expedition," it takes us into another millennium, and is complete. "The Omega Expedition" is a philosophical novel, a sequel to "The Fountains of Youth," It is the extraordinary life history of Adam Zimmerman, developer of the technology of emortality. The main part of the narrative describes his long-delayed awakening into the 35th century, a time of true immortals. His exotic hosts--inhabitants of a microworld in the outer solar system--have recruited various interested parties to help with the resurrection project, one of whom (inevitably) is the famous historian of death, the immortal Mortimer Gray, who is exceedingly anxious to gain what insight he can into the vagaries of the mortal mind. "The Omega Expedition" is a richly textured, serious SF novel that will resound like a huge bell, ringing down the halls of science fiction for years to come.
