description: Henneberg/CherryhThe long-threatened greenhouse effect which scientists have been predicting as a possible outcome of the world's atmosphere crisis was anticipated years ago in this novel by the talented Nathalie and Charles Henneberg. This award-winning husband and wife team have long been regarded as the A. Merritt of France because of the color and high fantasy of their concepts.Here is the world beneath the greenhouse sky, where vegetation has evolved into huge and intelligent species and where humanity finds itself, after its own disasters, reduced more and more to servants of these Green Gods and foreseeing their own extinction. Only the daring sea prince Aran and the puppet queen Atlena stand against doomsday... and this is their surprising adventure.Translated into English by the Hugo-winning American writer, C.J. Cherryh, readers will find The Green Gods combines much that is reminiscent not only of A. Merritt but also of C.S. Lewis, Clark Ashton Smith and Michael Moorcock.A DAW Books Discovery
