Synopsis: First sf novel by Rhysling Award winner, David Memmott is a postcyberpunk social satire. Worldbenders are trained to reinvent the past. Benito Cortezar creates a perfect past only to find it haunted by forces he cannot control. A shadow at the core of Primetime threatens our very humanity. So many depend on Benito -- even the dead.
At the watershed of human and post-human, in the clash between Dreamtime and Primetime, a gaggle of fractured heroes are caught up in a struggle between those yet to come and those waiting to come back.
"Primetime gives us a future where the sun shines while mythologies and realities of the past and future collide thanks to the emerging technology. It's a pleasure to read... Come to think of it, it also comes close to my fantasy of science fiction that makes you want to get up and dance..." -- Ernest Hogan, author of High Aztech and Cortez on Jupiter
