Book Club Edition. © 1993: 1st in the 'A Requiem For Homo Sapiens' series of books. 1st printing of 1993 edition:- Synopsis: Book one of David Zindell's new epic trilogy, 'A Requiem For Homo Sapiens', is set in Neverness, legend…ary City of Light, where inner space and outer space meet. Where the god program is up and running. Into its maze of colour-coded streets of ice a wild boy stumbles, starving, frostbitten and grieving, a spear in his hand: Danlo the Wild, a messenger from the deep past of man. Brought up far from Neverness by the Alaloi people, Neanderthal cave-dwellers, Danlo alone of his tribe has survived a plague - because he is not, as he thought, a misshapen Neanderthal, but human, with immunity engineered into his genes. He learns that the disease was created by the sinister Architects of the Universal Cybernetic Church. The Architects possess a cure which can save other Alaloi tribes. But the Architects have migrated to the region of space known as the Vild, and there they are killing stars. All of civilization has converged on Neverness through the manifold of space travel. Beyond science, beyond decadence, sects and disciplines multiply there. Danlo, his mind shaped by primitive man, brings to Neverness a single long-lost memory that will challenge them all:- Review(s): "David Zindell's ambition to build in his fiction a new intellectual universe and history of the human race is triumphantly achieved in this first book of 'A Requiem For Homo Sapiens'. As a challenge to the sense of reality we collectively hold together Zindell unlocks with words the menacing awareness of scale a bacterium might possess and the dizzying resolution of diversity which was formerly the preserve of Zen masters" / "Spectacular world-making" - The Times:- (original cost unmarked).
