Synopsis

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. Perfect for readers of The Space Between Worlds and Adrian Tchaikovsky. INFINITY IS ONLY THE BEGINNING.

The Pandominion: a political and trading alliance of a million worlds – except that they’re really just the one world, Earth, in many different realities. And when an AI threat arises that could destroy everything the Pandominion has built, they'll eradicate it by whatever means necessary, no matter the cost to human life.
 
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. It could save everyone on her dying planet, but now she’s walked into the middle of a war on a scale she never dreamed of.
 
And she needs to choose a side before it kills her.

3.0 Stars I am always on the hunt for an amazing multiverse novel and I had high hopes that this one would be the one. I enjoyed the framing of the story at the start, but the actual narrative fell short for me. I found the pacing and plotting were just a bit off, keeping me from getting fully immers......more

Goodreads review by Elena on August 08, 2023

Stars: 2.5 out of 5. This is another example of a book where the idea sounds great when you read the blurb on the back, but the execution is sorely disappointing. Honestly, the most I can say about this book is meh. The idea of a technology that allows humans to travel the multiverse is amazing, and t......more

Goodreads review by Levi on April 14, 2024
