Book excerpt: This series comprises the saga of the universe next door: The Entire. Reviewers have called Kay Kenyon’s series "a grand world," "an enormous stage," and "a bravura concept." Titus Quinn has forged an unstable peace with the Tarig lords, enforced by the nanotech surge weapon he possesses. But it is a sham. In what the godwoman Zhiya calls a fit of moral goodness, he has thrown the weapon into the space-folding waters of the River Nigh. But now he must face his enemies from earth, where a small cadre plans to take the Entire for itself and leave the earth in ruins. In the fabled Rim City encircling the heart of the Entire, Quinn at last finds his daughter, now called Sen Ni. Despite their troubled past, he seeks her help against the people who would destroy the earth. But Sen Ni has her own plans and allies, among them a boy-navitar of the Nigh, who is willing and supremely able to break his vows and bend the world. Quinn casts his fate with the beautiful and resourceful Ji Anzi who, sent on a journey to other realms, now holds the key to Quinn's heart and his overarching mission. But as he approaches the innermost sanctuary of the Tarig, he is alone. Waiting for him are powerful adversaries, including a warrior whose chaotic mind will soon be roused from an eternal slumber. "Lush, captivating and entrancing." —SFF World "Truly a series that demands to be read. Only, be sure to start at the beginning. You don't want to miss a word." —Fantasy Magazine "The Entire and The Rose is without doubt one of the most fascinating sci-fi series on the market today. In City Without End, Kenyon elevates this series to new heights." —Pat's Fantasy Hotlist
