To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But Assurbanipal, while probably fiend- ish and certainly crapulous, was clearly literary besides. From the spoil of sacked cities this bibliofilou took libraries, the [81] THE LORDS OF THE GHOSTLAND myths and epics of creation, sacred texts from Eridu and Ur, volumes in the ex- tinct tongues of Akkad and Sumer, first editions of the Book of God.
These, re-edited in cuneiform and kept conveniently on the second floor of his palace, fell with Nineveh, where, until recently recovered, for millenn...ia they lay. Additionally, from shelves set up in the days of Khammurabi the Am- raphel of Genesis Nippur has yielded ghostly tablets and Borsippa treasuries of Babylonian ken.
These, the eldest revelations of the divine, are the last that man has deci- phered. The altars and people that heard them first, the marble temples, the ivory palaces, the murderous throngs, are dust. The entire civilization from which they came has vanished. Yet, traced with a wooden reed on squares of [82] BEI^MARDUK clay, are flights of little arrows, from which, magically, it all returns.
