Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is not my cup of tea, but I don't often drink tea. It turns out to be surprisingly tasty.
I prefer reading hard science fiction with its technology and characters solidly based in the real world. This book is solidly based in fantasy.
To me it seems more in the genre of magical realism than sf. There is almost no technology involved, and what there is is more like a parody of our actual technology. The science, like almost every other aspect of the book, is explained in a way that gleefully creates more questions than answers.
The writing has a lilting, kind of eccentric, poetic quality. It's hypnotic, filled with compellingly absurd phrases, characters, situations, and occurrences. Readers who allow it to carry them away will find themselves wrapped in a sometimes spooky, often funny, enjoyably strange dream.

Seven seductive Middle Eastern women join a party on a Western Federation cruiser which floats on the Persian Gulf. The women turn out to be narrators of a science fiction story. They mesmerize the crew and draw a dark picture of the future which handles a fictive nuclear war between Iran and USA : "After the explosion of the first atomic bomb, the question is raised if it is possible to turn back time itself?"
