This is a review of the entire Dancers at the End of Time trilogy. The setting is Earth at the end of time, and humanity has achieved immortality, seemingly inexhaustible energy sources, and highly advanced technology that you can use to create anything imaginable by manipulating power rings. But because the human race has been around for millions and millions of years, concepts that are so integral to our lives like work, religion, philosophy, art, and morality have lost all meaning.
So instead This is a review of the entire Dancers at the End of Time trilogy. So instead of using their nearly unlimited power to create great monuments or explore the galaxy, our descendants throw elaborate parties where they try to one-up each other and have casual sex regardless of gender or familial relation. In this story, the constructor Klaupacius travels to a planet with a civilization that has attained the Highest Possible Level of Development H.
Instead of doing advanced scientific or altruistic works, the inhabitants of this planet which is shaped like a cube loaf about in hyper-intelligent sand and only pick their noses or scratch their butts.

The 41 Best Disney Songs of All Time
So, probably with a similar outlook, the inhabitants of the Earth at the end of time only party, trying out different styles, ideas, and experiences out of an unquenchable desire for novelty. The conflict comes from time travelers that end up stranded in this idyll and find it disgusting debauchery but are unable to escape because of the nature of time travel in this cosmos. The protagonist, Jherek Carnelian, the last man born from a womb rather than created as a fully-formed adult , and thus a darling of this future society, decides that his latest affectation is going to be falling in love with one of the time travelers, a woman named Mrs.
Underwood from a 19th century suburb of London. The interplay and misunderstandings between Jherek and Mrs. Underwood form the comic core of these novels. Every interaction between a delight to read.

And the plot is fast-paced. Moorcock throws up marvel after marvel, twist after twist. Aug 20, Jim McDonnell rated it really liked it. My favourite s science fiction book, bar none, and in many ways IMHO , one of the best. Moorcock claims he wrote this as a riposte and critical response to the popularity of fantasy fiction like 'The Lord of the Rings', which he called "epic Winnie-the-Pooh". The trilogy is a joy from start to finish - a bit like Steampunk written by New Romantics, the Earth is populated at the end of time by carefree dandies with god-like powers. I'd certainly like to live there.
Droll, funny, inventive, My favourite s science fiction book, bar none, and in many ways IMHO , one of the best. Droll, funny, inventive, psychedelic, sardonic, a good plot with a satisfying ending even though there are two more books 'Legends From the End of Time', and 'The Transformation of Miss Mavis Ming' that are considered part of the series. Moorcock's love of language is obvious - this is a trilogy that would be fantastic if narrated by Stephen Fry - and he seems to be having tremendous fun writing the fantastical events at the End of Time and elsewhere.
The only thing I can think of that even comes close to this in tone though taking itself a lot more seriously is 'The Diamond Age' by Neal Stephenson - apart from more Moorcock, that is.
Never gets old, never fails to delight. Highly recommended. Oct 29, Simon Mcleish rated it it was amazing Shelves: owned. Originally published on my blog here in February The conclusion of The Dancers at the End of Time trilogy opens at almost the opposite point in the earth's history, with Jherek Carnelian and Amelia Underwood marooned in the distant past, in the Devonian period with a broken time machine.
They are eventually rescued, and return to the end of time, depicted more sombrely than before, to witness the end of the universe that had been predicted by aliens, seeking to warn pleasure loving earth Originally published on my blog here in February They are eventually rescued, and return to the end of time, depicted more sombrely than before, to witness the end of the universe that had been predicted by aliens, seeking to warn pleasure loving earth dwellers that their massive consumption would bring the end much sooner.
The way in which this points a finger at our society is if anything more obvious than it was a quarter of a century ago. The whole of the series is a commentary on the present, as much of science fiction is designed to be; this is a particularly successful example. This third in the trilogy is much darker than the first two, and the description of the earth as the end approaches and things begin to fail is quite chilling.
While pessimistic, the novel does have positive moments. All in all, it is a satisfying ending to one of the best trilogies in science fiction.

After the first two, knockabout volumes of this trilogy, Moorcock has to settle down and tie things together. It makes the book another hundred or so pages longer than the previous outings, and there is not the comedy or the slapstick. But he winds things up well. Secrets are revealed, relationships flourish, etc. Most importantly the true bleakness of this far distant future is exposed.

The End of Time crowd are true aesthetes. They reminded me of art school students, constantly admiring or deriding one another's "work. They will survive the collapse of the universe by living out eternity in a weeklong loop in which they will still have the abilities that allow them to shape their environment anyway they wish. I am worried, however, that Jherek and Amelia are sent back to the Paleozoic age to jump start a new human race, The End of Timers don't seem to know much about gene pools and diversity.

This is a hard series to explain. It begins humorously enough, as a riff on the madness of a world without cause and effect. It continues along in its dark comedy through the three books, but the final novel hit home with me on a specifically terrifying level. The last half of the book seems to be a meditation on the nature of infinity, which is a concept I have wrestled with my entire life. For me, it was very difficult to read, late at night, wanting to shut down for the day.
It forced me into This is a hard series to explain. It forced me into a tangle of philosophical thought. What seems on the surface to be just s supremely absurd parody ends up being quite profound, IMHO. Very different from the Elric series which makes it even more bizarre when he tries to combine the two.
Jan 07, Andrew Lasher rated it really liked it. Since this is the third review that I have written for this series one for each book , you probably already have an idea how I feel about the series. Basically it boils down to this. If you have read the first two books in this trilogy, I have no idea why you are reading this review. Get out there and finish the book! If you haven't read the previous novels, take a look there first. My Since this is the third review that I have written for this series one for each book , you probably already have an idea how I feel about the series.
My only advice is that you read the books in order because they rely on each other heavily. Happy Reading! View 2 comments. The end of the trilogy and this book had some very glorious moments. I was a little disappointed there was not more time travel, but the end of the universe was pretty spectacular.
I loved that in the last day Jherek was very happy. I enjoyed the development of Mrs. I think the end of time lost some of its magic when it went from being doomed to an eternally secure heaven. I loved the decedance in the face of destruction more than decedance in the face of eternal boredom.

Still this The end of the trilogy and this book had some very glorious moments. Still this was a very satisfying end to the trilogy and the whole thing was lots of fun. I will definitely try and read some more Moorcock in May 17, Elric rated it it was amazing. Moorcock excels himself with this amusing story of life at the end of time, and indeed many other times. The characters at the end of time are like Oscar Wilde on speed and equally as absorbing with their decadent and confronting behaviour, a real mirror on society and its norms.
