Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The sole survivor of a fleet of colony ships wakes up in a featureless room. His only clue to his surroundings is an ever-changing window. Is he dead? Is he dreaming? Or is he the subject of some bizarre experiment.? "This plot is quite exceptional and it exceeded my expectations. Quinn is a strong character. Readers will love him because he's caring and strong, yet vulnerable-a compelling mix. Conor is underplayed beautifully. The action scenes move the plot along beautifully and all of the scenes are captured with great visual quality. I knew exactly where I had stopped reading and it was easy to pick up and to lose myself in the story-line again, and this is also quite telling. An excellent book." - Annette Young. The Creative Competitor"Whiteway's writing is highly visual and not overly cluttered. The world building and surroundings are presented in ways that are easy to understand, even for people who don't usually read science fiction. Familiarizing the reader with this new environment is where the author shows his talents." - Kathy's Book Reviews"The attention to every detail in this book is an amazing job by the author. You think you have the answer, and it is changed by a simple word or two. Just when you think you have it all figured out, the author takes a turn and you are back to square one. Character development is brilliant. The author is one of the best Science Fiction writers of our time." - Sandra Heptinstall. Midwest Book Reviews "Whiteway, whose fantastic imagination conjured up a slew of alternate technologies for the Lodestone series, has no trouble creating beings that are definitely not like us. What makes this story stand out is not the futuristic technology and extraterrestrial anatomy-both of which are admittedly very cool-but the alien thinking exhibited by the otherworldly characters. Arc of the Universe is the first of a new series, and if the first book is any indication, readers are in for a ride that's exciting, emotional, and thought-provoking." - Terence P Ward, Allbooks Review This item is printed on demand.

Lodestone Book Four: Seeds Across the Sky Lodestone Book Five: The Conquered Shore Lodestone Book Six: Eternity's Shadow "The new characters slotted in seamlessly and really strengthened the storyline. I especially enjoyed the suspicion and mystery wrapped up in the fantasy packaging. This went deeper than the other novels and has taken a great deal of thought, care and attention. The sub-storylines and the testing of each character's beliefs was excellent. The twists and turns had me hanging onto every word. I didn't want to put the book down. This book is a masterclass in how to create engaging characters in fantastical settings. It's the best book yet. I do hope that there will be a follow-on." Annette Young - The Creative Competitor. "I have had the privilege of reading all six books of the Lodestone series. To me the way the author wrapped up the series is brilliant. The author is a bit of a poet and philosopher. I found tears running down my face as I was reading the last chapter." Sandra Heptinstall - Midwest Book Review. "Mark Whiteway's gifts go far beyond creating alien landscapes and imaginative technology. His complex characters and rich plots continue to fascinate long after the properties of lodestone have settled into the background. "What stands out for me is the author's ability to take two alien beings, each as completely different from one another as they are from my human experience, and leave me feeling their connection to one another. That doesn't come from a wild and crazy imagination; that is the forte of the masterful observer of human behavior. "Sometimes, when a series of novels reaches into five or more books, the plots can feel stilted and forced. Not so with the Lodestone series. Eternity's Shadow only deepens the intrigue and the machinations of beings vast and tiny, and leaves this reviewer eager for more." Terence P Ward - Allbooks Review. This item is printed on demand.
