Emperor - Stephen Baxter ... long time ago I wrote down the names of the Weaver series though I never saw them in the shops, so I was delighted when I saw the first three books in the local library. The books are: Emperor , Conqueror , Navigator and Weaver . Emperor follows the fortunes of one family living under Roman rule in Britain. A woman in childbirth starts screaming out words none of her family except one, who (luckily) knows Latin and records it. The mystery is how this woman, who was uneducated, could suddenly know Latin. In time the words are recognised as being a prophecy. The future generations of the child born during the prophecy are followed, including a plan to assassinat...

Emperor - Stephen Baxter ... am a lover of reading and like to read novels set in different periods of Englands history.

He has great faith in the prophecy and l... Read the full review: Being Emperor isn't always easy by i_am_joy |

The Light of Other Days - Arthur C. Clarke, Stephen Baxter ... Shaw's small, perfectly formed story 'The Light of Other Days' has enjoyed a prolonged life. It appeared in Analog in 1966 to widespread acclaim, and Shaw later wrote sequel stories and expanded the concept into a novel, Other Days, Other Eyes (1972). Based on the intriguing premise of 'slow glass', glass through which light takes years to travel, it remains one of the finest in 60s SF, and it is a small scandal that it is not now in print. Now two of the most respected names in British Hard SF have collaborated to bring out a new version of this tale, re-using Shaw's haunting title and dedicating the novel 'To Bob Shaw'. The glass ...
