  Pavane by Keith Roberts  Other Worlds, Better Lives  by Howard Waldrop Things Will Never Be The Same by Howard Waldrop  
         
Updated 11 March 2012

What's New

     

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS:


   

Considered Keith Roberts’ masterwork, this novel consists of linked short stories (six measures and a coda) set in a twentieth century where the Roman Catholic Church controls the western world, and has done so since Queen Eliza­beth of England was assassinated in 1588. The Protestant Reformation never happened. The Inquisition thrives. And a tyran­ni­cal Rome maintains its power in a Dark Age, by limiting knowledge, outlawing electricity and curbing technology.

“I read one story from Pavane when I was nine, and it scarred me. It was the first time a short story had made me cry.  I read the whole book as a teenager and learned where that story had come from, and the shape of the whole story and I felt the scars heal.  It was Keith Roberts’ masterpiece: ­profound and still remarkable.”

– Neil Gaiman
