This is a breathtaking novel from Adrian Tchaikovsky, Arthur C. Clarke award winning author. The walls between many worlds are collapsing and only a handful of people are in on this secret. But how can they stop the end of the universe?
Adrian Tchaikovsky was born in Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire, and
headed off to university in Reading to study psychology and
zoology. For reasons unclear even to himself, he subsequently ended
up in law. Adrian has since worked as a legal executive in both
Reading and Leeds and now writes full time. He also lives in Leeds,
with his wife and son. Adrian is a keen live role-player and
occasional amateur actor. He has also trained in stage-fighting and
keeps no exotic or dangerous pets of any kind - possibly excepting
his son.
Adrian is the author of the critically acclaimed Shadows of the Apt
series, the Echoes of the Fall series and other novels, novellas
and short stories. The Tiger and the Wolf won the British Fantasy
Award for Best Fantasy Novel - and Children of Time won the Arthur
C. Clarke Award for Best Science Fiction Novel. This was in the
award's thirtieth anniversary year.
Full of sparking, speculative invention . . . The Doors of Eden is
a terrific timeslip / lost world romp in the grand tradition of
Turtledove, Hoyle, even Conan Doyle. If you liked Primeval, read
this book
*Stephen Baxter, author of the Xeelee Sequence*
The Doors of Eden shows a combination of tight, evocative prose
combined with erudition. In a story whose scope is the broad canvas
of the history of all life in the universe, Tchaikovsky manages to
zoom in on human moments without breaking a sweat. Inventive, funny
and engrossing, this book lingers long after you close it
*Tade Thompson, award-winning author of Rosewater*
What a ride . . . talks like big-brained science fiction and runs
like a fleet-footed political thriller
*John Scalzi, author of the Old Man's War series*
With The Doors of Eden, Tchaikovsky has created a fantastic and
highly imaginative new genre: evolution SF
*Peter F. Hamilton, author of Exodus: The Archimedes
Engine*
Unlike anything I've read in a very long time, and all the better
for it . . . Tchaikovsky is clearly at the top of his game right
now
*James Oswald, author of the Inspector McLean series*
As all right thinking people know, Adrian is the best . . . But
this, my friends, is the best of the best
*Ian McDonald, author of Desolation Road*
Tchaikovsky’s world-building is some of the best in modern sci-fi
and now he has made an enchanting multiverse of parallel Earths
*New Scientist*
