Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express

Victor Tanasa a dat nota:

Quite different from the first instalment, so much so that I have a hard time comparing them. While The Quantum Magician is a fun heist adventure, The Quantum Garden is a more personal and in-depth exploration of character. Don't get me wrong, it has action, but that's not the focus here. Ayen was the star of the show for me, her story being deeply moving and emotional. I'm so glad I discovered this author. In the final chapter, Künsken hints at a third book in the series, that I can't wait to read. It seems though that he decided to write two prequels, exploring the formation of a major political faction in this universe. I can't complain; judging by these two, they're going be to be awesome too. If you're having second thoughts about reading this series, don't. It has so much going for it that you're bound to find something you'll like. Most probably a lot.

Recenzii

Cool pseudo-scientific speculation, futuristic tech, and imaginary alien species
Imaginative, full of cool quantum stuff and a lot of fun
A nail-biting plot where you are hoping beyond hope that everything will turn out all right
A story that grabs hold and won't let go, and which asks interesting questions, and offers interesting answers
Künsken returns with all of the magic from The Quantum Magician - and honestly, I think he outdoes himself this time!
Filled with penetrating reflections on life and its multitude of adaptations to hostile conditions in the universe
Felt a bit like being punched in the face by a physics textbook but in the best way
The novel opens with a bang... and opens up a whole new world(s) of potential
A satisfying, sometimes mind bending, time travel thriller with a philosophical edge

Descriere

The stunning, critically-acclaimed follow-up to best-selling The Quantum Magician 

THE ULTIMATE CHASE

Days ago, Belisarius pulled off the most audacious con job in history. He s rich, he s back with the love of his life, and best of all, he has the Time Gates, arguably the most valuable things in existence. Nothing could spoil this...

...except the utter destruction of his people and the world they lived on. To save them, he has to make a new deal with the boss he just double-crossed, to travel back in time and work his quantum magic once again, tracking down the source of the wormholes.

If he can avoid detection, dodge paradox and stay ahead of the eerie, relentless Scarecrow, he might just get back to his own time alive.
