Urutsk Extreme Orbit and 1,750 year Seasons
Not saying the science here is the action at work in the setting, but, it may help someone get a feel for the Grand Year.
When I was speaking with Michael Moorcock, he told me tha Brian did something like that. Having not read Mr. Aldiss' work, I am only as familiar with it as I have heard.
I am updating and combining material for a non-Beta, first edition. I am also writing Urutsk for different systems to broaden its reception and reach. Currently, I am writing one for Encounter Critical.
The 1,750 season sounds like a yuga.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly does share some similarities. Jewish thought has similar concepts.
DeleteBrian Aldiss's Helliconia has a similar Grand Year as well, doesn't it?

DeleteAny update on progress on getting Urutsk published or is that dormant?
