A uniquely powerful novel of a society in decay. On a planet whose
very nature is a mystery a massive decrepit city is pulled along a
massive railway track, laying the line down before it as it
progresses into the wilderness. The society within toils under an
oppressive regime, its structures always on the point of collapse,
the lives of its individuals lived in misery. No one knows where
they are going, why they are going or what they will find when they
get there. The ending of the novel provides one of the most
profound twists in SF.
