The Beyond: Journeys in the Afterlife

By Richard Sibley

When F and M discover that there is life after death, they realize that they can explore the past and the future of Earth, the universe, and the multiverse. Aided by their companions the 'roboputers', they meet Jack the Ripper, Mary Magdalene, Beethoven, and Napoleon. They witness the Big Bang and the day the dinosaurs died. It turns out that the past as it has come down to us is largely composed of myths, lies and errors. When they visit the future, they discover unimaginable existences and titanic battles between old and new intelligences. We follow their roller-coaster relationship, and are eventually left observing the devastation of the 'last dawn' that M's curiosity and F's sensuality have threatened to bring about. "an avant-garde novel" "a whole new approach to storytelling" "... The Beyond is not just a series of entertaining stories about the past and the future ... it also asks fundamental questions about our identities, about sex and gender, about love, the truth, time, history and religion ..." Richard Sibley is a retired university lecturer. He lives near Paris.
