This is the city: a technological paradise built by an advanced race.  It's glittering towers reach proudly for the stars, and its spires are looped by elevated roadways.

The people that lived here were enlightened and contented.  They travelled in bubble-topped saucer cars, along moving pavements or in anti-gravity tubes.  Obedient robots tended to their every whim.  Disease, war, famine and pollution had been eradicated.  Food machines synthesised all essential nutrients into pill form, and personal rocket ships brought the solar system within reach.  The people of the city befriended Venusians and Martians alike.

The city is self-cleansing.  Its systems harness solar power and static electricity.  Its buildings are cinstructed from a metal that will never rust or tarnish.  It will stand forever as a monument to the achievements of the human race.

This is Earth.  The year is 2000 AD.  This is your future.

Welcome to the Space Age.

 Steve Lyons
Notes:
From the back of the book Crooked World:

Steve Lyons was born and lives in Salford, near Manchester.  He has contributed articles, interviews, short stories and comic strips to many magazines, including Doctor Who Magazine, Starburst, SFX and Dreamwatch.  He has also written X-Men novels, Doctor Who audio plays and books about several TV series, including Doctor Who: The Completely Useless Encyclopedia.  He can hardly believe he's typing this, but Crooked World is his tenth Doctor Who novel!  His favourite cartoon is Scooby-Doo - but then, if you've read this far, you already knew that.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
