A FEAST REVEALED

BY WIN SCOTT ECKERT

A Chronology of Major Events Pertinent to Philip José Farmer’s Secrets of the Nine Series.

With selected entries from Philip José Farmer’s Tarzan Alive: A Definitive Biography of Lord Greystoke, Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life, and other sources.

In “A Tale of Two Universes,” my introduction to Titan Books’ reissue of Philip José Farmer’s novel Lord of the Trees, the second in his Secrets of the Nine series,1 I made the case that Farmer’s Nine novels, featuring the ape-man Lord Grandrith and his half-brother Doc Caliban, the man of bronze, take place in a parallel universe to the mainstream Wold Newton Universe.2 I also suggested that “Depending on whether the two universes diverged at some common point in the distant past, or whether they have always been coexistent, the Nine in each universe might conceivably have some members in common, members who were alive when the universes divided.”

Keeping these points in mind, what follows is a timeline of the Nine Universe of Lord Grandrith and Doc Caliban. Relevant information from Tarzan Alive and other sources is included, as well as a few speculative additions.

Some of the entries below take place in the Wold Newton Universe, but have direct bearing on the continuity of the universe of Lord Grandrith and Doc Caliban.

Due to the influence of time travel and dimensional breaches on the Grandrith/Caliban continuity, the Chronology is presented in causal order rather than strict chronological order.
