โฆ Synopsis
Mobi Retail
The
Xeelee Sequence is a series of novels and short stories which span several
billions of years, describing the future expansion of Mankind, its war with its
arch-nemesis (an alien race called the Xeelee), and the Xeelee's own war with
dark matter entities called photino birds.
Beginning with RAFT in 1991, Stephen Baxter's epic sequence of Xeelee novels
introduced readers to perhaps the most ambitious fictitious universe ever
created.
Beginning with the rise and fall of sub-quantum civilisations in the first
nano-seconds after the Big Bang and ending with the heat death of the universe
billions of years from now the series charts the story of mankind's epic war
against the ancient and unknowable alien race the Xeelee.
Along the way it examines questions of physics, the nature of reality, the
evolution of mankind and its possible future. It looks not just at the morality
of war but at the morality of survival and our place in the universe.
This is a landmark in SF. And now, for the first time, all ten titles
comprising the Xeelee sequence are collected together in one volume.
Includes: Raft, Timelike Infinity, Flux, Ring, Coalescent, Exultant,
Transcendent, Resplendent, Vacuum Diagrams, Xeelee: Endurance
