Book Description

Publisher's Summary
The wizards discover, to their cost, that it's no easy task to change
history.
Roundworld is in trouble again, and this time it looks fatal. Having
created it in the first place, the wizards of Unseen University feel
vaguely responsible for its safety. They know the creatures that lived
there escaped the impending Big Freeze by inventing the space elevator
- they even intervened to rid the planet of a plague of elves who attempted
to divert humanity onto a different time track. But now it's all gone
wrong - Victorian England has stagnated, and the pace of progress would
embarrass a limping snail. Unless something drastic is done, there won't
be time for anyone to invent space flight, and the human race will be
turned into ice pops.
Why, though, did history come adrift? Was it Sir Arthur Nightingale's
dismal book about natural selection? Or was it the devastating response
by an obscure country vicar called Charles Darwin, whose best-selling
Theology of Species made it impossible to refute the divine design of
living creatures?
Can the God of Evolution come to humanity's aid and ensure Darwin writes
a very different book? And who stopped him writing it in the first place?
