The long earth 2012
By Terry Pratchett, Stephen Baxter
- Fiction, Science Fiction, Recluses, Space and time
Terry Pratchett, other than lending his name to this book, wasn't a part of it. No humor and dark reading. Mr. Baxter should have published it under his own name, he can write, just not to my liking. gmb 3/15/20
