Synopsis

A group of adventurers searching for a cure for comatose children find themselves trapped in a sequence of virtual worlds, the only opponents of a conspiracy of the rich to live forever in a dream. Now, they are forced to make an uneasy alliance with their only surviving former enemy against his treacherous sidekick Johnny Wulgaru, a serial killer with a chance to play God forever. Few science fiction sagas have achieved the level of critical acclaim-and best-selling popularity-as Tad Williams's Otherland novels. A brilliant blend of science fiction, fantasy, and technothriller, it is a rich, multilayered epic of future possibilities.

Now, much makes more sense, and many open questions are answered and I am overemphasizing this aspect because ev......more

Goodreads review by Mike on July 12, 2010

This book, the fourth in a four-book fantasy series, is an amazing example of how a good idea can be stretched and diluted until it is no longer pleasurable to read. There is nothing particularly wrong with the Otherland series. The ideas are interesting, the execution is fairly creative, some of th......more

Bueno ya se ha terminado... y sí, se me ha hecho pesada la saga. Ya había conectado con Williams en Añoranzas y pesares, pero esta me ha costado más. Aquí se resuelve todo, de forma buenista y un poco liosa en comparación de donde venimos, a fin de cuentas, estos son unos libros de aventuras, con un......more
