小川一水氏筆のSF小説。「これが今の日本のSFだ！」と言って良いほどの壮大な物語。
ほんのりラノベテイストで、SF特有の難しい設定は省かれてますが、世界観は練りこまれていてよく出来ています。
270ページ程度なので小説読まない方でもサックリ読めてオススメ。
読んだら描きたくなった。と言うか描いた。

A science fiction novel by "Ogawa Issui.":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Issui_Ogawa It's such a great story that it would be fair to say that it is the flagship of current Japanese Sci-Fi.
It is something of a light novel, and while it omits the complicated setup that is the trademark of most SF, the world it creates is really convincing and well done.
It's about 260-70 pages long, so I recommend it as a good quick read for those who don't usually read novels.
After I read it I really felt like drawing a picture...and in fact I did.
