The Veils of Azlaroc
Fred Saberhagen
This short novel brings a life a most unique world and imaginatively
brings together a number of characters from a multitude of different
generations as a result of a mysterious physical phenomenon that
annually can capture visitors to the planet and makes them prisoners in
time. While not terribly dense or detailed, it reads easily and wraps
the reader up in a special universe with intriguing interactions between
characters, especially between generations. It is a magical, light book
that will have you chuckling and sighing with sadness. It is about
power, greed, lost romantic relationships, about the joy of acceptance,
and the collision between people of different time periods. A
fascinating story that has few parallels.
