As the Curtain Falls

In the old age of the once great planet Earth, the oceans have long dried up, and in their empty sea bottoms stand the last cities of mankind, for the once mighty continental heights are barren and frigid. The world is strewn with the ruins of the star-faring civilizations of the Dawn ages, and somewhere in those ruins lies the legendary Kingsworld Legacy-which may yet save humanity. Trebor of Amballa possesses the key to the Legacy. But can he use it-and will the remnants of a myriad lost nations let him? Robert Chilson paints a colorful and vivid picture of the farthest future, tinted with wit and a tinge of bitter iron.
