“Dying Earth” is a collection of novellas about a world in which the Sun that illuminates ancient Earth is slowly fading—though this does not prevent people from enjoying life while passions boil with the same fury as in the days of our planet’s youth.
Turzhan Miirskiy, the wizard of Mazirian; the beautiful Sais; and the noble Etarr, Layan-the Wanderer, Kandayv the Golden and Yulan Dor, Gwvil from Sfir—these and many other people’s stories have become the story, perhaps, of the last days of Earth.
