The Fall of Tartarus (Gollancz S.F.) ペーパーバック – 2005/4/14
英語版
Eric Brown
(著)
In myth Tartarus was the lowest region of hell. So low, it was said, that an anvil dropped from heaven having taken nine days and nights to reach earth would take a further nine days and nights to reach Tartarus. In reality ...'I'd heard many a tale about Tartarus Major, how certain continents were technological backwaters five hundred years behind the times; how the Church governed half the planet with a fist of iron, and yet how, across scattered islands and sequestered lands, a thousand bizarre and heretic cults prospered too. I'd heard how a lone traveller was hardly safe upon the planet's surface, prey to wild animals and cut-throats. Most of all I'd heard that, in two hundred years, Tartarus would be annihilated when its sun exploded in the magnificent stellar suicide of a supernova.' These are the stories of the people who are leaving Tartarus, those have decided to stay and those who are arriving on the planet for the apocalypse.

レビュー
"The opening stories are coming of age tales with a touch of Stepehen King." -- Anthony Brown DREAMWATCH "British SF writer Eric Brown has created a convincing planet in Tartarus Major; its races, flora, fauna and even chunks of its history are easily believable." -- Simon Withers SFX

I've always loved Eric Brown's novels and short stories. He can use SF as a means of capturIng the human condition and convey an exciting adventure story with a sobering reflection on humanity. This collection is different, being conceived in SF terms but shot through with horror. Still, whatever the lack of a feelgood factor these are the work of a master of his craft.

I can't believe I fell for this again!

Here is another example of an authors earlier short stories stitched together to make a book. While all the stories take place in the same "universe", they didn't quite make a decent read for me. Basically story lines just seem to stop halfway through the book and you move on to other characters.
It's not quite as satisfying a package as a set of characters from start to finish. Otherwise, it was an OK read as far as I am concerned.
Sorry Mr B.
