31 July 2004

Time’s Eye by Arthur C. Clarke and Stephen Baxter, Gollancz, £12.99, ISBN 0575075309 Reviewed by Marcus Chown

THE army of Alexander the Great (with a few English Tommies and Rudyard Kipling) face the hordes of Genghis Khan (with a few Russian cosmonauts). Oh, and there are some alien artefacts hovering about too. Echoes of 2001 abound as Arthur C. Clarke and Stephen Baxter take us on their latest space – or, rather, space-time – odyssey. Hang on for a highly entertaining ride.
