He kept quiet as a desperate pope bamboozled the king of the Franks. He watched Charlemagne become Holy Roman Emperor.He worked for some of the greatest minds of the last thousand years. He saw mercantilism and the Industrial Revolution destroy the things he cared about.All these and more make up the last day's session with the tape recorder.End is the final book in the Tape Recorder Trilogy, a journey through humanity's past from before recorded history up to the Twenty-First Century. Starting with the aftermath of the first outbreak of Bubonic Plague in Europe, End sees The Narrator embrace Islam and help to bring that faith to Egypt and northern Africa before becoming disillusioned. In the centuries that follow he watches the Roman Catholic Church become independent of a Constantinople torn in two by Iconoclasm only to see half of Christendom in turn become Protestant in rejection of decadent popes. The centuries from the discovery of the New World up to the present are a rollercoaster he struggles to endure. At the end of his story, he has a choice to make about how he will be remembered forevermore.
