Product Description

Review
'Maniacally gripping... The toughest space-opera series of recent years, the Gap series succeeds because Donaldson constructs a future with no discernible moral centre and peoples it with the most memorable and believable cast of characters anywhere in contemporary SF. Chaos and Order finds the author remorselessly turning up the heat under a bunch of players already at boiling point, allegiances and agendas feverishly shifting as their options run out.' Time Out

Product Description
A new-cover reissue of the fourth book in the bestselling five-volume sf series created by the world-famous author of the Thomas Covenant chronicles -- and acclaimed as the 'best work of his career'. Events were not moving as the Amnion had intended. Once again humans had been false in their dealings with the aliens. As the planetoid Thanatos Minor exploded into atoms, the Trumpet hurtled into space only one step ahead of hostile pursuers. On board were Morn Hyland and her force-grown son Davies, cyborg Angus Thermopyle and Captain Nick Succorso -- old enemies thrown together in a desperate bid for survival. For both the Amnion and the UMCP, the immediate capture of the fleeing ship and the secrets it contained was imperative. But for Trumpet's exhausted crew the only hope lay in an illegal lab in the distant binary solar system of Valdor Industrial. It would be a journey of unpredictable danger -- from which not all would return...

5.0 out of 5 stars The best space opera I have ever read!, 15 Sep 1999
By A Customer
At last an intelligent, complex space opera that deals with man's interaction with a very alien species. True to form, Donaldson's characters are nasty but superbly well written. The writing is incredible.

The only thing is that Book 1 is a little light. Read Book 1 and 2 together and then judge for yourselves. All I can say is that each book is better than the last.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Gap to a great series, 24 Feb 2003
By A Customer
The Real Story got me interested in reading more of this series, but I must admit that Book 2 put me off a little. It is hard going but "The Gap to Power" and and "The Gap to Madness" are both better than the one before. Finally we see plots (for by this book there are many) clearing and forming themselves ready for a climatic end. We see Morn, Nick and Angus returning and the balance of power shifting between them. I will not spoil the endings but suffice to say the "The Gap into Ruin" is next in my reading pile.
