Flat World

Roger Strauss was US Air Force pilot with a promising career ahead of him.

He was chosen to test pilot an experimental vehicle which would make it possible to instantly travel from one point in the universe to another. 

The craft would circumvent time and space by leaving the universe, and once outside, the pilot would take advantage of the infinite perspective to enter the universe again at a new point. 

But instead of returning to the universe at a different physical location, Roger finds himself in an alien universe with a different set of physical laws. 

He is a stranger Avramis, the Flat World, and almost immediately becomes the center of an ancient conflict which is nearly as old as the world itself.

This is an exciting story which holds one's attention with the storyline involving action, relationships, new environments and people, and amazing imaginative descriptions. My walk in the woods on earth will never be the same after reading this story...

I found this book to be very entertaining, and entirely unpredictable. There were a few minor issues with the editing in the early chapters, but it improved in the later parts of the story, and as I got farther into the story I got so involved with what was going on that I didn't notice if there were any errors.

The author excels in crafting a world entirely different from what we have seen before, complete with its own history, its own problems, and its own unique strengths and weaknesses. There are strong characters who are good or bad, but even the good characters sometimes make mistakes and have to deal with the consequences. While there is a strong moral code in the characters, this is not heavy-handed and there is room for a myriad of differences in the cultures of the world in terms of acceptable custom and dress.

The differences in culture, and how the various sub-cultures play off each other is one area I found to be of particular interest in the book. There are also clear parallels that can be drawn between the history of Flatworld and our own world, yet this is done without heavy-handed allegory.

I look forward to reading more from this author."
