Reseñas de la Crítica

"To solve his own demise, Stiles must travel between the two realities, each abounding with the expected confusions and unexpected plot twists for which Anthony is famous. An artful blending of SF and fantasy clichés and situations, Split Infinity shows Piers Anthony at the top of his ingenious game(s)." (Amazon.com review)

Apprentice Adept Series

you cant go wrong with Piers Anthony.
i have everything by Piers Anthony from here and love them all.
the best in the Apprentice Adept Series is the first 3 books.
but Apprentice Adept Series is all part of one story.
try the first book and if you dont like it then dont bother with the rest in this Series.
but if you do like it then get them all.

Not a classic, yet remembered fondly.

I first read this book over twenty years ago, I think. I was a teenager and all my friends loved it.

It was one of the staples of teenage sci-fi reading in the late eighties, such was Donaldson, Eddings and Fiest. Piers Anthony is the lesser of these four.

It is entertaining, and the story spans over several books. I started listening to book 4, which is new to me, and immediately felt it betrayed the first three.

First book of a favorite trilogy

First book of a favorite trilogy, which later became a series dealing with the next generation.

An somewhat entertaining book...

What did you like best about Split Infinity? What did you like least?

The book was well performed and it was an interesting split of Sci-Fi and Fantasy. Though the main character seemed to be both too perfect and completely helpless at times. Not one of the best Piers Anthony books I ever enjoyed.

Has Split Infinity turned you off from other books in this genre?

Nope

What about Traber Burns’s performance did you like?

Traber Burns did an excellent job of voicing all the characters with various voices so you could easily differentiate between characters. This made it seem like a one man play more than an audio-book.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes

reliving the classics.

Reading some classic Sci-Fi. I may consider the rest if the series..this one was pretty good...not as predictable as many I have read lately. The living of dual lives, in dual dimensions. Nice...
