Seven Novels of the Last DaysVolume VI: The Stars Blindly Run

By James David Audlin

The Sun is sputtering and guttering with only a pallid reddish light. Dark night has nearly completed its victory over day. What few human beings are left cower in a last village awaiting the eventual death of the world.Two Hunters struggle for supremacy over a female of a nonhuman race.A noah builds a sailing ship to escape to the stars in an attempt to evade the end of the Universe.And then a miracle; no one remembers the last time a child has been born, but here is one, a girl. She is beautiful, but strange, given to dancing weird rituals beneath the Moon and painting self-portraits in the nude. One of the two Hunters, Adam Winter, dares to confront her with his love, with disastrous consequences.The other Hunter, Ikaros, consumed with rage, teams up with a noah to build an Ark -- and it sails into space seeking a new world where humanity might yet live. But there is no miracle for Ikaros; again and again they come back to the same tired world and its darkening Sun.
