A different angle

I read this book expecting to find a continuation of the two brilliantly written novels, "World Enough and Time" and "Time's Dark Laughter". It was and it wasn't. Kahn prefaces the story with the implication that the main character, one Joshua Green, is in fact a mental patient he once interviewed and that the text of the first two novels came from a 70 million year old diary which Joshua's past incarnation left for him to find in the deepest Africa. Uhuh. Not as good as the first two novels but O.K. It was somewhat disturbing that the author didn't wish to draw a nice safe line between fiction and reality. I mean, the story couldn't be true ... could it...?
