   Michael Rawdon s reviews of The Anubis Gates , Dinner at Deviant s Palace , Last Call , and Expiration Date.

   Extractions: Tim Powers Click on a book's image or title to order from Amazon.com Reviewed October 1998 Read the back cover of The Anubis Gates and you'll think Powers has written an "everything-but-the-kitchen-sink" novel, a book with so many disparate elements it couldn't possibly hang together. Instead, what you've really got is an exquisitely tightly-plotted modern fantasy novel in which every element relates to every other element and all makes sense at the end. The basic thrust of the story is this: A pair of near-immortal sorcerers, who worship the Egyptian god Anubis, want to bring their god's influence to the fore once more. The powers of magic are dwindling over time, being replaced by science and reason, so in 1802 they cast one great spell to try to bring back the Egyptian gods. It doesn't work, but what it does do is opens holes in time for three hundred years on either side of 1802, through which people can travel. In 1983, this is just what an aging millionaire does: He assembles a group of people to go back in time to see Samuel Taylor Coleridge speak in London in 1810, including Professor Brendan Doyle, who gives a brief lecture on Coleridge before accompanying the group back in time. Alas for Doyle, before he can return, he's kidnapped by one of the sorcerers and is stranded in 1810. Doyle manages to escape, but is penniless and alone in 1810 London. There he encounters a criminal mastermind dressed as a stilt-walking clown; Dog-Face Joe, who can change bodies with other people; a plague of hairy apes appearing around London; a brainwashed Lord Byron; his own handwriting in a book from 1684; and the enigma of poet William Ashbless, whom Doyle knows more about than almost anyone, but whose biography appears fictional when he fails to appear in his documented locations. Meanwhile he's being pursued by the Egyptians (among others), and trying to stay alive and healthy while searching for a way back to his own time.

   Extractions: ASIN: Customer Reviews: On Stranger Tides Powers is an exceptioanllu imaginatiove writer. If you've heard of voodoo, read this for a well thought-out piece on how it might work in an alternative place. A really fantastic view Let's begin with the Fact that Powers is an exceptional writer. More than his books "Anubi's Gates", "Dinner" or "The Force in its Look", has been capable to speed the narrative style. I never imagined that was possible to transfer the pirate ambient into a genuine fantasy novel. I mean, there's no a "dragon's opera", but a terrific approach to the pirates mythology. Of course, all in between a novel with interesting characters and a really good story. Mildly entertaining, definitely well-written

Dick theworksoftimpowers.com Powers during visit in ICon festival in Israel Timothy Thomas "Tim" Powers (born February 29, 1952, in Buffalo, New York is an American science fiction and fantasy author. Powers has won the World Fantasy Award twice for his critically acclaimed novels Last Call and Declare . His 1988 novel On Stranger Tides was optioned for adaptation into the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean film. Most of Powers's novels are " secret histories ": he uses actual, documented historical events featuring famous people, but shows another view of them in which occult or supernatural factors heavily influence the motivations and actions of the characters. Typically, Powers strictly adheres to established historical facts. He reads extensively on a given subject, and the plot develops as Powers notes inconsistencies, gaps and curious data; regarding his award-winning 2000 novel Declare , Powers stated "I made it an ironclad rule that I could not change or disregard any of the recorded facts, nor rearrange any days of the calendar – and then I tried to figure out what momentous but unrecorded fact could explain them all."

    Extractions: I finished DECLARE last week and it's an amazing book. I tried something similar in BLACK WIND (that is, take historical events and go behind them to show why these things =really= happened; it's not alternate history because events and outcomes remain unchanged, only the perception is altered) but Tim takes it to a daring extreme. He changes the whole subtext of the Cold War. The research must have been daunting. It's brilliant. F.

    Extractions: You Save: When Michael Crawford discovers his bride brutally murdered in their wedding bed, he is forced to flee not only to prove his innocence, but to avoid the deadly embrace of a vampire who has claimed him as her true bridegroom. Joining forces with Byron, Keats, and Shelley in a desperate journey that crisscrosses Europe, Crawford desperately seeks his freedom from this vengeful lover who haunts his dreams and will not rest until she destroys all that he cherishes. Told in the guise of a secret history, this long-awaited tale of passion and terror is finally back in print after more than 20 years. Ambitious premise and blasé writing style is a questionable combination which didn't work for me. No recommendation
