There, he and his cohorts are sealed off from the illiterate, irrational, unpredictable "saecular" world, an endless landscape of casinos and megastores that is plagued by recurring cycles of booms and busts, dark ages and renaissances, world wars and climate change.

And, one by one, Raz and his friends, mentors, and teachers are summoned forth without warning into the unknown. 650 0 $a Life on other planets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Disasters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Monasteries $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Philosophy $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mathematics $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 gsafd 655 0 $a Audiobooks. 700 1 $a Dufris, William. $4 nrt 700 1 $a Wyman, Oliver. $4 nrt 700 1 $a Gilbert, Tavia. $4 nrt 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20090708133753.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1FAAAA066BF811DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b LI@Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
