From the author of THE TEAR OF OUR WAR. Swainston’s first novel THE YEAR OF OUR WAR was a very different and literate fantasy. That’s rare these days. There is something new in the fantasy field and Swainston seems to have found it. NO PRESENT LIKE TIME continues the story that began with THE YEAR OF OUR WAR. I’d compare Swainston to. . . . ah, I can’t think of anyone to compare her to. She seems to be equal parts of Roger Zelazny and Aldous Huxley, a brilliant and tasty combination. #30365
