Conrad Nomikos has a long, rich personal history that he'd rather not talk about. And, as Arts Commissioner, he's been given a job he'd rather not do. Escorting an alien grandee on a guided tour of the shattered remains of Earth is not something he relishes- especially when it is apparent that this places him at the center high-level intrigue that has some bearing on the future of Earth itself.

Review of 'This Immortal' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

It was kind of difficult at the start to get used to the narrative: Fluid but with blank places, never seeming to have a pause, characters that usually told everything between lines, perfect timing and definitely even if interesting this book didn't age well (hah).
But was quite pleasant anyway.

I enjoyed the brutal fights and the way mythology of old ages came to live again.

"Do you not see a convergence of life and myth, here, during the last days of life on this planet?"



I'll add Zelazny to my to-read repertory.
