Plot summary



'A Theatre of Timesmiths' is a novel in which a city is trapped behind walls of ice, and the computer which runs its heating is close to failure.

Reception



Dave Langford reviewed 'A Theatre of Timesmiths' for 'White Dwarf' #54, and stated that "This kind of book demands a stream of small revelations en route to the big ones; Kilworth handles this well, concluding with a leap into metaphysics which might have taken me by surprise if I hadn't read too much Ian Watson. Effectively and colourfully written."
