Hi
This review
is about the third novel in The Long Earth series
by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter.
The novel has 437 pages and I got it from The Book Depository.

* NO SPOILERS *
First of
all; what a beautiful cover. That’s not the most important part, I know, but
still.
There are
only three major plotlines and that is a huge improvement from the previous book.
This one
was really amazing. The discoveries, the new species they meet, Mars and its
stepworlds, fascinating ideas about evolution, captivating journeys and very
interesting new people (I liked that a lot).
And even
though I don’t particularly like Sally and her father, I did enjoy their
storyline. Unlikable but realistic people make great stories.
This novel
has more suspense and action than the ones before too. But at the same time, not much happens and it got really boring reading about the constant stepping into worlds much the same from the others.
The writing
style is the same, still as engaging as the ones before but less philosophical
because Lobsang is less important in this story.
Happy reading!
