The concluding pages of Paradox found Tom forcing the two warring factions to recognise the destructiveness of their two opposing paths. Physically, emotionally and spiritually drained - all Tom craves is to be able to return to the simplicity of the life he'd found in the lower strata. But Tom is now a legend, and when unforseen forces threaten to shatter Nulapeiron's fragile peace, it is time for legends to be reborn...John Meaney burst on to the SF scene with his ground-breaking debut novel TO HOLD INFINITY. With PARADOX, he more than fulfilled that promise. Now with this thrilling sequel to that daring and complex second book, he confirms his place at the very forefront of science fiction in the 21st century.
