Oliphan Oracus

Everyone is curious about the future. It would be a nice place to visit - but would you want to live there? In 2257 Keef is a television: a dishevelled, shamanic figure roaming a vast autumnal forest where big cats hunt, squirrels and monkeys teem in the canopy, and boar root in centuries of leaf litter. In 1995 Kate Wallis is a junior research assistant at a leading pharmaceutical company's laboratory complex, and she has no idea that she will soon find herself living the plot of a science fiction soap opera. She is accidentally exposed to an experimental longevity virus that causes a 262-year coma. Kate wakes in Keef's world and they begin a love affair that has profound repercussions for his community. .Be warned: the resourceful heroes of science fiction stories are mythological figures, and technology might as well be magic.Robinson, Neil is the author of 'Oliphan Oracus', published 2007 under ISBN 9781904853473 and ISBN 1904853471.
