The Tang Dynasty Underwater Pyramid

By Walter Jon Williams

Nebula Award-winning author Walter Jon Williams serves up a glorious novelette-sized mashup of intrigue, cutting-edge biotech, Aymara Indian spies, a Chinese cruise ship, ninjas, Andean folk music, and a tetrahedal menace from beneath the sea.

But the greatest threat to our heroes comes in the form of a water ballet company, whose director insists on Total Artistic Control.

“...A rapid, imaginative, and at times hilarious story, packed with action and great characters...[Williams’] story is complete, rounded, and a great read.”

Reviews for The Tang Dynasty Underwater Pyramid

[robert3167 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Quirky tale of spies and fixers traveling as group of Aymara Indians "playing South American Tunes Made Famous by North American Pop Singers" Along for the ride are the Apollos and their three mermaids synchronized swimming group, The Outrageous Water Ballet of Malibu. Sharing a cruise ship with the aforementioned troupe and going on before the Bloodthirsty Hopping Vampires, Ernesto and his group have simple job to do. However nothing in the story is simple.
