Product Description

Product Description

Here, from the other side of time, come: THISTLEDOWN, the asteroid starship of a future that is not quite our future; GAIA, a parallel reality where Alexander the Great's empire has ruled for two thousand years; and THE WAY, an infinite corridor through space-time which traverses and encompasses whole universes. And as the strands of these mysteries are unravelled, so the ordering and the end of mankind -- and our entire Universe -- come into question --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mind Blowing!, 8 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Eternity (Paperback)
It seems Eon was just a prequel for an idea here. This book is absolutely outstanding and is second only to LOTR in my opinion.

When i read this book, at one point i had to put it down, because the twist the story takes just took my breath away. BUY IT NOW

5.0 out of 5 stars eternity is even more epic and fantastic then eon, 14 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Eternity (Paperback)
After randomly buying eon for no apparent reason, reading it twenty-four hours (non-stop, with no sleep) I was immediately engrossed by the vastness and scale of the universe Bear had created. When I learnt of a sequal I made it my mission to hunt it down and read it. I was not dissapointed. Greg Bear has created such an incredible world that you cannot be anything but amazed by every aspect of it. When I first read the books I was daunted by the complexity of the physics, it is true that a degree in theoretical in physics has haelped in my comprehension, but anyone with a little imagination should not be troubled by Bear's fantastic universe. The best thing about the book is it's developement of the characters of the original inhabitants of Thistledown and the Way, providing a nice view of humanity, thousands of years in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great sequel to Eon, 26 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Eternity (Paperback)
Eternity, the sequel to the classic Eon, is well worth reading. Although it gets off to a bit of a slow start, it soon warms up, with many of Eon's mind-boggling concepts present. The ending is mind-blowing! If you enjoyed Eon, you should read Eternity for sure.
