Timescape (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781096435419)

Timescape is a tale of an epic journey across Time and Space by a creature who has named himself Noom. Noom is an Eternal. He has been ripped from his home by a cataclysmic explosion which birthed Time, itself. His mission is to find a way to capture Time and stuff it back into the hole it came out of. He wishes to restore his home: Eternity.Noom's travels bring him to Earth. Actually, it is here that he finds his name. He finds it in the sound of a large wind instrument being blown by a small brown man on a large, arid, sparsely populated land mass.Noom has met many biological constructs before. He has been traveling for a very, very long Time. But he soon discovers that the sentient biological species on this planet is very different from peoples he has met before.What could be the cause of these peoples' lack of respect for their planet? How is it that their short history is filled to the brim with violence and butchery?Are these peoples inherently aberrant, or has someone been interfering with their natural development?Noom soon discovers the presence of another Eternal like himself who has been on this planet for over four thousand of the years as they are measured here. It is Bang. She, too, has named herself, but not from something found here on this puny planet, but rather from the event which launched her on her own journey through Time and Space. Noom attempts to capture Bang. As they struggle in the thin air over a huge, icy land mass, Bang calves. Her calf, another female of their species is not an infant. They are Eternals. The calf has always been. It just had not chosen to be born yet. Until now.Now, this planet has a native-born Eternal to count among its peoples.But she is not pleased with what she finds here. The World itself is lovely. But its peoples are not. She has chosen her own name, and she has chosen it from one of this planet's ancient cultures.She is Kali. Not the goddess of Time and Change. The other one. The one of Death and Destruction.The fight for the future of the peoples of this planet begins. Kali is calling for the extermination of the unworthy peoples who litter her new home. Bang vacillates, caught between her own love of this planet and her feelings for her calf.Noom will defend these peoples.It is his destiny.
