Description

Two-Thousand years after Pompeii’s damage, a thriller of upheaval—volcanic and political—as only SF Grandmaster Frederik Pohl can create it! With an enthusiastic vision for the mankind in just about any scenario, science fiction image Frederik Pohl has designed a powerful new book of the not-too-distant future we can only wish is just science fiction. When Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D. it offered so little caution that Pompeiians were caught unawares, and several systems were preserved in volcanic ash. In 2079, Pompeii is just a well-known theme-park excitedly expecting Illinois Giubeleo, the Jubilee celebration of the truly amazing wedding, two-Thousand years later.
