In a landlocked galaxy that tunnels through our own, the Entire is a bizarre and seductive mix of long-lived, quasi-human and alien beings gathered under a sky of fire, called the "bright". A land of wonders, the Entire is sustained by monumental storm walls and an exotic, never-ending river. Over all, the elegant and cruel Tarig rule supreme.

Into this rich milieu is thrust Titus Quinn, former star pilot, bereft of his beloved wife and daughter, who are assumed dead by everyone on Earth except Quinn. Believing them trapped in a parallel universe, one where he himself may have been imprisoned, he returns to the Entire without resources, language, or his memories of that former life. He is assisted by Anzi, a woman of the Chalin people, a Chinese culture copied from our own universe and transformed by the kingdom of the bright.

Learning of his daughter's dreadful slavery, Quinn swears to free her. To do so, he must cross the unimaginable distances of the Entire in disguise, for the Tarig are lying in wait for him. As Quinn's memories return, he discovers why.

Quinn's goal is to penetrate the heart of Tarig power to steal the key to his family's redemption. But will his daughter and wife welcome rescue?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Deft prose, high-stakes suspense and skilled, thorough world building." (Publishers Weekly)
"A splendid fantasy quest as compelling as anything by Stephen R. Donaldson, Philip Jose Farmer or, yes, J. R. R. Tolkien." (Washington Post)
"Her richest and most ambitious novel yet - fascinating and, best of all, there promises to be more to come." (Greg Bear, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author)

Interesting premise. Interesting characters. Nice writing style that is easy to follow and envision. Unfortunately, "nice" is the operative word. The extremely interesting details that bring a story to life and make you WANT to KNOW what is going to happen next... are missing. I'm not talking about "action" ...but about whatever it is that you are led to want to know about whatever it is that you are reading. LOL. BIGtime.

Decent enough

While the story has a good concept, it left something out or tried to put too much in it and didn't resolve enough conflict to be called a book. I was turned off by the psuedo oriental culture because it appeared to be the only culture in a world where all cultures of Earth were studied by the various inhabitants.

Good Story lost in psuedo culture

Some story concepts are just too complex to enjoy the story, and this one is just that.
Honestly, I've read a LOT of high brow scifi that WARRANTED such exercise, and was WORTH it.

Sorry, this on isn't.

If you can comfortably get your head around this one enough to enjoy, then completely ignore this review, take some aspirin, and buy it.

Ugh. Just Not Getting This One...

The central character just isn't particularly likable. It's not just that he's an "anti-hero," but he quite self-centered and short-sighted. I would disagree with reviewer Steve --- I don't think the characters are as fleshed out as Wilson's Spin.

The character voicing is terrible. Asian voices are done in a sickly "Charlie Chan" style. Stupid and insulting. It was like listening to a kid's Saturday morning cartoon.

Plot doesn't warm up until the final 1/4 of the book.

Some of the ideas espoused in the book are quite interesting and original, but the book as a whole is a little disappointing.

I recommend Revelation Space if you want a real space opera.

Pedestrian writing. Terrible narration.
