A fascinating window onto a dangerous and multifaceted universe
This is an SF western . . . And yet, that's also a misleading simplification, because the frontier inhabited by Bess is a place where nothing is as it seems. Add in a split narrative involving dimension-hopping soldiers, animal-human creatures, a war conducted across the multiverse, and mysterious archaeological remains, and there's much going on here. That it never seems too much, but rather the product of a brilliant imagination, is entirely to Carey's credit. His best novel yet.
Humane, thoughtful and exciting, Mike Carey reaffirms his place in the ranks of SF with this startlingly good novel
A genuine treat for SF fans: an epic multiverse tale that moves like a thriller
Infinity Gate, with its in-depth science and rich characterization, is a must-read for SF fans, as Carey's story crosses the militarism of an anthropomorphic Starship Troopers with Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter's Long Earth series while waging a war against Stargate's replicators.
When the book's different subplots converge, they do so in a brilliantly realised set-piece that combines balletic über-violence with real emotional heft - which only makes you impatient to open the next volume
