This is an excerpt from my novel Metropolitan, published in 1995 by HarperPrism, and now available in mass market paperback. “There’s a Jules Verne solidity to it, all girders and ductwork and massively clanking machineries, a Victorian feel of iron and stone and steam somehow, beautifully and cunningly rendered… not only a well-realized work but a hopeful landmark of sorts…” Norman Spinrad. “The most striking quality of Metropolitan is its sheer readability, due largely to pungent characterization and persuasive dialogue… (Aiah) is about as three-dimensional a character as you’ll find in modern science fiction… (Constantine) is Machiavelli’s Prince a thousand years from now…” Book World The changes in Aiah’s understanding of her city and the changes in her relationships with her family, her lover, and Constantine make a complex and well-rounded story.” Denver Post “…a fascinating book… Williams does a wonderful job of portraying Aiah and her world. ![]() Metropolitan was nominated for a Nebula Award for Best Novel. ![]() ![]() ![]() These sources include accounts of a Welsh monk named Gildas, the Venerable Bede, and others.
