Book Description Paperback: 7" x 4¼". Condition: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Cover Art: Uncredited (illustrator). 1989 Edition. © 1988: A stand-alone novel by Michael P Kube-McDowell. 1st printing of 1989 edition:- Synopsis: Sister worlds exist, recognizably alike yet startlingly different. And the 'gate house' between these worlds is a closely guarded secret of America's fanatical leader. For President Robinson, the gate house is a military trump-card, a last laugh in the ever-more aggressive sparring with the Soviets. For Senator Endicott, the first man to travel from one Earth to another, the Alternities provide a playground for his most evil, power-crazed fantasies. But for Rayne Wallace, member of the elite guards sent to spy on these other worlds, the gates offer a chance to start his life all over again:- Review(s): "This is the best parallel universe novel to come around in tears. Michael P Kube-McDowell creates a startlingly believable universe and takes us on a thrilling tour" - David Brin, author of 'The Uplift War' / "Reminiscent of Arthur C Clarke at his best" - Newsday / "An exciting novel of alternate worlds. Kube-McDowell is an author to be reckoned with" - Greg Bear, author of 'The Forge Of God' / "'Alternities' will make you think - and care" - Locus / "The finest new writer of cosmic science fiction in twenty years" - Orson Scott Card:- (original cost £3.99).
