About the Book

At last Malenfant gets to kick-start his own universe in this final volume of the Manifold series. The Fermi Paradox concerning extraterrestrials runs: If they existed the would be here. Since they are not here, they don't exist. In TIME, in a universe empty of other sentient beings, Malenfant discovered the aberrant development that led to humanity's uniqueness, our sole occupation of space. Then, incredibly, he changed everything, with the aid of the Blue Children from the future. In SPACE, aliens were everywhere but they were just arriving in the Solar System. And the same Fermi Paradox unravelled to reveal that all life in the universe is temporary: the aliens and life on Earth are periodically wiped out, only to start over, and over, and over. In ORIGIN, our astronaut hero has the chance to reach out to where both universes cross, their origin, and at last make sense of life on Earth and elsewhere.

Review :
`The most important living science-fiction writer in the country’ THE TIMES `The best SF writer in Britain’ SFX Praise for The Manifold Trilogy: `Pacy, visionary, extravagantly imagined, TIME places Baxter firmly in the tradition of Arthur C. Clarke and Isaac Asimov’ THE TIMES `Highly intelligent, with original ideas in almost every sentence’ THE GUARDIAN `Baxter is taking basic SF ideas and rebuilding them based on current science, technology and politics … [He] apparently has the ambition and the energy to reinvigorate hard SF all by himself’ LOCUS `It’s time for Baxter to take his place alongside Asimov and Heinlein’ EDGE
