The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Nulapeiron: a world isolated for twelve centuries, whose ten billion inhabitants live in subterranean strata whose upper levels, dwellings of the aristocratic classes, boast organic technologies and the use of Oracles whose ability to foresee their future is a most useful curse.

Tom Corcorigan is young and impoverished, witness to the death of a mysterious woman who may be one of the legendary Pilots, and soon to be thrust into dreadful suffering, and servitude among the logosophically trained ruling classes. He will prove to be brilliant, though physically and psychologically flawed: poet, revolutionary, and more.

He needs to avenge himself against an Oracle who foresees Tom's failure, to fight a corrupt system and the too-violent revolution that reacts against it, to find himself...

Nulapeiron is a complex world with hundreds of different languages and cultures. The Oracles' abilities derive from genuine speculations about the true nature of time, a mystery at the heart of physics. Above all, the novel is about people, and the complexity of life, and the inevitability of unexpected twists in destiny.
