Letter to a Phoenix

My review: I liked the story. But i think insanity is not a divine matter or that man is collectively insane...there is a time when a man comes to his senses to be sane. May legends live for ever.

Quest for Time




In this drawing above he is filming a hydra.
Quest for Time 1970 pages 253
By A.E. Van Vogt

My Review: Immortality science fiction. Interesting read, i recommend it ...Caxton, what a name ...a selfish paranoid loner looking for immortality.
I agree that the heart is desperate above all matters and a man does need a prospect, looking at the clouds all the time is sure to be lulling. I know this: Mankind hopes for all to live and that his hope for all to live will come to pass...written in the bible in what some call the old testament, and I believe and hope in this too.
