Synopsis

A page-turning adventure about parallel universes and the monsters they hide, in this extraordinary feat from the imagination behind the bestselling Children of Time."Full of sparkling, speculative invention." —Stephen Baxter, co-author of The Long EarthThey thought we were safe. They were wrong. Four years ago, two girls went looking for monsters on Bodmin Moor. Only one came back. Lee thought she'd lost Mal, but now she's miraculously returned. But what happened that day on the moors? And where has she been all this time? Mal's reappearance hasn't gone unnoticed by MI5 officers either, and Lee isn't the only one with questions. Julian Sabreur is investigating an attack on top physicist Kay Amal Khan. This leads Julian to clash with agents of an unknown power—and they may or may not be human. His only clue is grainy footage, showing a woman who supposedly died on Bodmin Moor. Dr Khan's research was theoretical; then she found cracks between our world and parallel Earths. Now these cracks are widening, revealing extraordinary creatures. And as the doors crash open, anything could come through. "Tchaikovsky weaves a masterful tale ... a suspenseful joyride through the multiverse." —Booklist"What a ride ... talks like big-brained science fiction and runs like a fleet-footed political thriller." -John Scalzi, author of of Starter Villain"Inventive, funny and engrossing, this book lingers long after you close it." -Tade Thompson, author of Rosewater

Re-read 5/15/21: Still love it! :) It's just as good the second time as the first. And you know what? It's VERY good for the imagination. For us, as readers, to think through the implications and dream and dream about what all those others that might/could/should become a vast side-series. You now, lik......more

I received an uncorrected proof copy of The Doors of Eden in exchange for an honest review. I would like to thank Adrian Tchaikovsky and Tor for the opportunity.

Goodreads review by Tanja on May 09, 2021

Thank heaven that’s over! It was so awful that I am afraid to pick up another book, lest I be put off reading all together. I look at the five star ratings and wonder what book that was, because surely anyone who has read more than five books in a lifetime can identify this as a lot of borrowed boll......more
