A genuine treat for SF fans: an epic multiverse tale that moves like a thriller
A must-read for SF fans
A character you can't forget in a lush, inventive world that expands past the wildest horizon!
Outlaw Planet is a sweeping story of vengeance, love and redemption, set against a backdrop of unimaginably vast interdimensional conflict
M.R. Carey is a master of imagination and suspense
This is an SF western . . . And yet, that's also a misleading simplification, because the frontier inhabited by Bess is a place where nothing is as it seems. Add in a split narrative involving dimension-hopping soldiers, animal-human creatures, a war conducted across the multiverse, and mysterious archaeological remains, and there's much going on here. That it never seems too much, but rather the product of a brilliant imagination, is entirely to Carey's credit. His best novel yet.

Infinity Gate, with its in-depth science and rich characterization, is a must-read for SF fans, as Carey's story crosses the militarism of an anthropomorphic Starship Troopers with Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter's Long Earth series while waging a war against Stargate's replicators.
