Cover Blurb: Does this give away too much?

I had a bit of a revelation moment today.

For a long time I have found it very hard to say in two or three concise lines what it is that The End of All Worlds is about. And then today, just as I was leaving work I realised, and then proceeded in telling myself and explaining it, and talking myself through it, all the way home, partly because I was in fear of forgetting it! The interesting thing about this description – and why I am still a little unsure about it – is because it doesn’t actually mention the three central characters, heroes if you will, at all. I guess the novel is about something bigger than that…

Ódinn, who has committed crimes in his own world and has been cast out to walk the world of men for all eternity, desires to return home. He enlists the help of Charles Ancell, a young, ambitious, aluminium developer to build a revolutionary new factory in the Icelandic Highlands to provide cheap metal. The techniques used will break apart the fragile bridge between the worlds and allow him to return home. As a consequence of this our world and its climate is set to change irrecoverably.

So anyway, what do you think? Answers on a postcode, or in the comment box below…
