'Rich in an awe-inspiring sense of wonder' Independent
'A hymn to the joys of unfettered world-building' Guardian
2045-2059. After the cataclysmic upheavals of Step Day and the Yellowstone eruption humanity is spreading further into the Long Earth, and society, on a battered Datum Earth and beyond, continues to evolve.
Now an elderly and cantankerous A.I., Lobsang lives in disguise with Agnes in an exotic, far-distant world. He's convinced they're leading a normal life in New Springfield - they even adopt a child - but it seems they have been guided there for a reason. As rumours of strange sightings and hauntings proliferate, it becomes clear that something is very awry with this particular world.
Millions of steps away, Joshua is on a personal journey of discovery: learning about the father he never knew and a secret family history. But then he receives a summons from New Springfield. Lobsang now understands the enormity of what's taking place beneath the surface of his earth - a threat to all the worlds of the Long Earth.
To counter this threat will require the combined efforts of humankind, machine and the super-intelligent Next. And some must make the ultimate sacrifice . . .

Tolle Fortsetzung - abgesehen vom ersten Buch wohl bis jetzt mein Favorit
Der Beginn hat sich etwas gezogen und die ganze Geschichte in London hat mich irgendwie nicht so interessiert, aber dieser Teil hat mich echt gepackt. Vor allem während der letzten 100-200 Seiten konnte ich das Buch kaum aus der Hand legen.
