PermafrostPermafrost by Alastair Reynolds
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I think I must have read at least a hundred time-travel novels (or novellas) in my life but I've never come across one with THIS particular analogy.

No time stream or branching. It's a glacier. *shiver*

I love it.

Oh, and the tale itself is top-notch, full of wonderful characterizations, complicated and believable plot, and stakes that get amazingly high.

In other words, it's pure Alastair Reynolds. :) It should to be a must-read for all you fans. :)
