Cycle of Nemesis

Cycle of Nemesis, by Kennith Bulmer, was published in 1967.  I think the cover is kinda cool, with that goofy looking monster and the caption "When time's vault opens..." could have been the inspiration for the Shrike in Simmon's Hyperion...I dunno.  This book is like some kind of English comedy routine...nothing is serious, the characters don't take anything seriously, except for like 2 pages of Lovecraftian doom, then it's back to the "I say, let's have a drink old chap..." as the  robot butler fixes some cocktails...kind of amusing, hard to care about, that's all.
