Product Description:
In the deepness of space there are millions of worlds like our own - and each with its own humanity. They are linked by the Bright, an ancient pathway between the stars created by an ancient, godlike race known only as the Makers. Now humanity travels the Bright, uniting its worlds to a common desiny. But the Bright can also be travelled by those bent on destruction - those who have chosen a different path, whose sole purpose is conquest.

4 out of 5 starsAnother hidden gem
This is another hidden gem from Robert Reed, one of SF's better kept secrets. All of his books are very different, owing to his great imagination. It is well worth the search to find a copy.



2 out of 5 starsnot really that compelling
Recommended by Time-legend Stephen Baxter as "The new century's
most compelling SF voice" I had to read this Robert Reed book.
But somehow I didn't find it an epic of breathtaking scope and
boundless imagination. Instead much of it felt like something
I had heard before. Left me without the kick of discovery.

-Simon



5 out of 5 starsFind this book and read it!
This is one of the rare almost-perfect SF novels, featuring parallel worlds, nano-tech, genetic engineering, ecological disaster, planetary-scale warfare. It is so cool it's hard to believe it's out of print. Read it and see if it did not somehow inspire or forecast much of what's great in current SF. It would in fact make a pretty good movie.
