## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ started at book 5 now I have to read more
*by T***E on September 13, 2024*

Starting at the end I had no problem following the overall story and enjoying the wonderful characters. Now I need to go back to the beginning

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Ending to a Good Series
*by N***S on June 28, 2016*

The Long Earth was a fantastic concept that has been executed very well by Baxter and the much missed Terry Pratchett. The series to me has been somewhat uneven, I thought there was plenty to explore on the long Earth without adding Mars and the rest of the galaxy which happened in this novel. I also always found Joshua's character a little muddled. In general characters to me quite often acted out of character because well this is how they needed to act or what they needed to do to forward the plot. That's the only reason though for the 4 stars instead of 5. I still really, really liked this series and was NOT let down by the ending as I have been by countless other series. It was an end. It wasn't lazy, no one woke up from a dream. It wasn't a betrayal of the concept, like all of a sudden no one could step. I liked it. Not perfect but what is.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From stepping between Earths to stepping beyond the Cosmos
*by J***Y on September 27, 2016*

I love this concept.What if you could step to another analog of your local Earth, but couldn't take much in the way of technology with you, then step again, and again ... That is the 'what if' principle upon which The Long Earth was written.In The Long Cosmos, several characters from the original novels get together again some years later. They (everyone, that is; trolls, humans, 'Next' - post-humans) receive the invitation: 'Join Us'. With overtones of Sagan's 'Contact', the Next have decoded blueprints for a device (as big as a State) to make it possible for ??? to happen. But (since both Baxter and Pratchett are writers of people rather than about tech), a small craft is constructed for a few key (and familiar) characters to take a reconnaissance tour.The writing owes more to Baxter than to Pratchett, but there are a few nice touches in Joshua and Lobsang's repartee. A couple of nice back stories to the main idea are developed. Why a bunch of sixty-year-olds (one a cripple) is vital to the mission when there are planets full of able-bodied Navy types available is never really explained. And there is plenty of room for a 'what next?' that will never be realized. But all-in-all a good read for those with a healthy suspension of disbelief.
