Also published under the title A Messiah at the End of Time. An expanded version of the novella Constant Fire (1976).
Here is what salvation brings...
At last! A self-proclaimed Savior has arrived at the End of Time, home of the deliciously decadent and frightfully bored. Unfortunately, the last thing they need is a messiah. Especially one like the Fireclown – who offers such unlikely gifts as Madness, Pain, and Doom. Still he does provide a welcome touch of amusement and dare we say, conflict to the final days of man. Indeed, that impregnable spinster, Miss Mavis Ming, is more than a little charmed by his attention... despite the destruction he might wreak on one and all! Such is the way of love...
