Between the Strokes of Night

Will this book survive, long enough to be read when time has no meaning for me personally? When I wrote it I would have said no, but here we are with a new edition seventeen years after the first one.

In any case, we live in the present, and really only in the present. I hope that Between the Strokes of Night is exciting to read now, because it was great fun to write. The objective control of subjective time provides enormous scope to a science fiction author. How often can a book begin near to the present day, and range on through the farthest reaches of time and space — and keep the same characters throughout?
