The Dancers at the End of Time – Michael Moorcock (1972–1976)
This trilogy is what happens when decadent immortals throw an eternal party while the universe collapses around them. It’s absurd, elegant, and unapologetically weird. Moorcock mocks both Victorian manners and cosmic fatalism in the same breath. The love story between Jherek Carnelian and Amelia Underwood — a time-lost human from the 19th century — is equal parts romantic comedy and existential joke.
It’s the kind of sci-fi that makes you say, “What did I just read?” — then read it again anyway.
