Kurzbeschreibung
In the skies over Oakland, California, a DC-10 and a 747 are about to collide. But in the far distant future, a time travel team is preparing to snatch the passengers, leaving prefabricated smoking bodies behind for the rescue teams to find. And in Washington D.C., an air disaster investigator named Smith is about to get a phone call that will change his life...and end the world as we know it.

I've read Varley's Gaen trilogy (Titan/Wizard/Demon) more than twice. I think I've read everything John Varley has published. And I remember most of them.
This book, which is very different from his normal type of story, is possibly his weakest effort. Not horrid, just an unsuccessful experiment.
Perhaps I just expect too much from John Varley. But get Blue Champagne or The Ophiuchi Hotline or the recent Golden Globe first. Millenium is just average.

Louise Baltimore. Woman from a dark, decadent, and dying future. The solution? Abduct victims of airplane crashes before the crash. Take them to the future to re-populate the earth 1000 years into Louise's future. Facinating take on the pitfalls of time travel as the dangers of paradoxes are created. That is, what would happen if one of the victims you are going to take before the plan crash was suppose to survive? How does that effect your future?Unfortunately it turns into something deadlier than humanity ever imagined. Save the future by harvesting the past? A book well done, and a must read for sci-fi fan.

I disagree with the other writers. I have read a lot of Varley and think this is just about his best. The Titan series was very enjoyable but also very adolescent (nothing against teen agers, mind you, I find the T & A in Titan tiresome). Anyway, Millenium is an interesting, well thought out, time travel book, with some very original premises. It seems sort of goofy at first, but ties together very well by the end. The characters are real people (even sherman, the robot!), and they act in beleivable ways. The plot is well thought out, moves along at a good clip, doesn't get too bogged down in the complexities of time travel, and has a reasonably fulfilling ending. What more could you want? Ophiuchi Hotline was my 2nd favorite of Varley's. Steel Beach was a real disappointment.
