The Expanded Earth: A TOP TEN TIMES BESTSELLER: The Expanded Earth series
Autor Mikey Pleaseen Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 apr 2025
Humankind has been reduced to the height of handspan - a transformation that is both potentially lethal and exasperatingly inconvenient
On a remote coastal path, Giles awakes in his new body to discover a world reshaped and magnified into a place of astounding abundance and deadly peril. Desperate to reconnect with his loved ones, he seeks the help of fellow survivors, and together they embark on a quest across the altered landscape. But as their journey unfolds, the more the question persists - are they still truly human, or has their reduction in size marked the beginning of a descent into savagery, an evolution into something other?
Elsewhere, one week earlier, Professor Elizabeth Goodwin makes a monumental discovery - God is alive and physically among us, but not in the form we've been taught to expect. As Goodwin prepares to make first contact with the omnipresent ocean-spanning creature, forces conspire in the wings, and the spectre of imminent catastrophe inches closer and closer still . . .
Dark, witty, and wildly ambitious, Mikey Please guides us into The Expanded Earth, a high-stakes adventure packed with jeopardy and life-affirming beauty - a story that ultimately celebrates the capacity of small things to effect great change. The first in a spellbinding trilogy, this beautifully illustrated debut novel marks the arrival of a new talent and perhaps a new genre - the world of the micropocalypse.

Recenzii
The Expanded Earth genuinely changed the way I look at the world around me. I loved the fantastic, horrifying, heartwarming, mind-boggling adventure of it. Mikey Please is a singular breed of genius and this book proves it yet again
Mikey Please has one of the most brilliant minds I know; the perfect combination of science, philosophy and madness
It's one thing to portray just a single person or a handful of individuals getting reduced in size. In Mikey Please's The Expanded Earth, by contrast, that very fate is visited forcibly upon the entire global population, and of those who undergo the transformation - a repulsive, traumatic experience - only a small fraction emerge alive. An excellent, inventive novel from an author whose career in stop-motion animation, including work for Aardman, appears to have given him a solid grounding in seeing things from a small-scale perspective
By turns comic and horrific, The Expanded Earth is a wonderfully sustained celebration of human ingenuity
'Mikey Please has one of the most brilliant minds I know; the perfect combination of science, philosophy and madness' Daniel Kwan, Oscar-winning director of Everything, Everywhere, All At Once
One sunny Sunday, without warning, humankind is reduced to the height of a handspan - an unsightly transformation as potentially fatal as it is inconvenient.
