And only a handful of people on the planet are prepared to face the truth, their six suns are setting all at once for the first time in over two thousand years, signaling the end of civilization as it explodes in the awesome splendor of Nightfall.Įncompassing the psychology of disaster, the tenacity of the human spirit, and, ultimately, the regenerative power of hope, Nightfall is a tale rich in character and suspense that only the unique collaboration of Isaac Asimov and Robert Silverberg could create. For Kalgash knows only the perpetual light of day to its inhabitants, a gathering twilight portends unspeakable horror.
Lurking beneath it all is a collective, instinctual fear of the Darkness. Kalgash is a world on the edge of chaos, torn between the madness of religious fanaticism and the unyielding rationalism of scientists. Then, one by one the suns start to set, gradually leading into Darkness for the first time ever. Imagine living on a planet with six suns that never experiences Darkness. Now, the Gran Master of Science Fiction teams with Robert Silverberg, one of the field's top award-winning authors, to explore and expand an apocalyptic tale that is more spellbinding today than ever before - Nightfall: The Novel. The story was called "Nightfall", and many years later it has long been recognized as a classic, its author a legend.
