Time and the Gods

About this book

Time sits among the gods and watches what happens to the worlds they have made. Civilisations flourish for a moment; divine ambitions outlast generations and yet remain vulnerable to change.

Lord Dunsany's Time and the Gods returns to the mythology of Pegana, expanding the imagined religion with richly told stories about fate, creation and the passing of ages. Sidney Sime's illustrations give its pantheon a visual presence. The book has the gravity of ancient scripture while quietly revealing how fragile every claim to permanence can be.
