''Newtons Sleep'' is an original novel by Daniel O'Mahony set in the Faction Paradox universe.〔(ISFDB Entry for Newtons Sleep )〕 It is the only Faction Paradox novel to be published by Random Static. Although taking place in a shared universe, it is a stand-alone work that does not require any prior knowledge of Faction Paradox. The events of ''Newtons Sleep'' occur on Earth in the 17th century. One of the central characters of the book is the historical playwright and spy Aphra Behn. The lack of an apostrophe in the title is intentional, and alludes to both ''Finnegans Wake'' and the original punctuation of the William Blake quote from which it is drawn: Blake is objecting to the literalism of the Newtonian mindset. He would have us see multiple significances in everything. On the 16th of January 2009, Random Static released a free e-book edition of ''Newtons Sleep'' in pdf format. ==Awards== The cover art, by Emma Weakley won the Sir Julius Vogel Award (New Zealand science fiction and fantasy award) for Best Artwork in 2009.〔(Sir Julius Vogel Winners 2008 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Newtons Sleep」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
