NORMALLY, WHEN THERE WAS NOTHING TO DO, HE LISTENED TO THE SILENCE. Here, the Silence is faint, nearly drowned out by the cacophony of the mundane world. The office of the transEarth Institute, part of the Black Corporation, buzzes with the sounds of air conditioners and indistinct voices. This sterile environment, marked by a large chesspiece knight logo, feels alien to Joshua, who realizes he doesn’t belong anywhere—he has access to all of the Long Earth. In 1916, Private Percy Blakeney awakens on fresh spring grass, surrounded by birdsong and the gentle rustle of leaves, bewildered by the absence of the war-torn landscape he once knew. Meanwhile, in 2015, Madison, Wisconsin, police officer Monica Jansson investigates the charred remains of a reclusive scientist’s home. Among the debris, she discovers a peculiar gadget—a box with basic wiring, a three-way switch, and a potato. This prototype holds the potential to revolutionize humanity's understanding of existence. The first collaboration between Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter, this novel invites readers to explore limitless possibilities and the consequences of their desires. All it takes is a single step into the unknown.
