About this ebook

"An immense achievement, an impeccably crafted book without a single word out of place." —The New York Times 

From bestselling author M. R. Carey comes a brilliant genre-defying story of humanity's expansion across millions of dimensions—and the AI technology that might see it all come to an end. 
  INFINITY IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.

The Pandominion: a political and trading alliance of a million worlds. Except that they’re really just one world, Earth, in many different realities. And when an A.I. threat arises that could destroy everything the Pandominion has built, they’ll eradicate it by whatever means necessary.

Scientist Hadiz Tambuwal is looking for a solution to her own Earth’s environmental collapse when she stumbles across the secret of inter-dimensional travel, a secret that could save everyone on her dying planet. It leads her into the middle of a war on a scale she never dreamed of. And she needs to choose a side before every reality pays the price.

“A fascinating window onto a dangerous and multifaceted universe.” —Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of Children of Time

Ratings and reviews

Cliffhanger. I don't know when it became acceptable to not even write a basic ending. It literally ends in the middle of a paragraph. It's part 1 of 3 in a longer story. A shame, as the writing is excellent, and while the story isn't new at all, it's well done. I'll read the next one, but definitely not until the series is finished. Until then I recommend the Baxter/Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, or even Zelazny versions.

The sample left me on full yearning for more. One of the more if not award winning most, good reads I've consumed thus far!!
