An early novel by Michael Bishop: And Strange At Ecbatan the Trees. The people of the island of Ongladred fear destruction from invading barbarians of the Angromain Archipelagos, the reappearance of a semi-mythical sea creature, and the devious intervention of the neo-human Parfects. Ingram Marley is a government spy sent to keep surveilance over Stonelore, a secluded haven of free thought on Ongladred, and Gabriel Elk, Stonelore's master and resident genius. Deep inside Stonelore the mysteries of life are pursued - reanimation of the dead, the invention of powerful laser weapons, and the secrets of "old earth" knowledge. Paperback editions (both British and American) were re-titled: Beneath the Shattered Moons |
