A Tale of Two Systems
BOOK THE FIRST - RECALLED TO LIFE I. THE PERIOD It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of the false gods, it was the season of the Great Serpent, it was the spring of hope in Dazra, it was the winter of despair in New Atlantis, we had everything before us, they had nothing before them, we were all going direct to the bosom of the universe when comes the Shrouding, they were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
[Charok Va'ruun's classic novel of society, war, class, family and the celestial dominance of House Va'ruun continues for a total of 341 pages.]
