It is the 147th century. Inside the radically advanced posthuman worlds of the Amaranthine Firmament, there is a contender to the Immortal throne: Aaron the Long-Life, the Pretender, a guy who is not quite a man. Inside the barbarous hominid kingdoms of the Prism Investiture, where life is short, cheap, and dangerous, an invention exists that can be the Firmament's most tightly kept top secret. Lycaste, a lovesick recluse outcast for an unspeakable crime, must trip through the Provinces, braving the grotesques of a historical, decadent world to find his salvation. Sotiris, grieving the increased loss of his sister and awaiting the madness of later years, must relive his 12,000 many years of life to avoid the man motivated to become emperor. Ghaldezuel, knight of the actors, must plunder the rarest treasure in the Firmament - the thing the Pretender will stop at nothing to obtain. From medieval Prague to a lonesome Mediterranean cove, and eventually far into the peculiar vastness of faraway worlds, The Assurance of the Child is a debut book of gripping action and incredible ambition unfolding over hundreds of thousands of years, marking the arrival of an excellent new ability in technology fiction.
