1916: The western front. Private Percy Blakeney wakes up. He is lying on fresh spring grass. He can hear birdsong, and the wind in the leaves in the trees. Where have the mud, blood, and blasted landscape of no-man's-land gone? For that matter, where has Percy gone? 2015: Madison, Wisconsin. Police officer Monica Jansson is exploring the burned-out home of a reclusive-some said mad, others alleged dangerous-scientist who seems to have vanished. Sifting through the wreckage, Jansson find a curious gadget: a box containing some rudimentary wiring, a three-way switch, and ... a potato. It is the prototype of an invention that will change the way humankind views the world forever. The first novel in an exciting new collaboration between Discworld creator Terry Pratchett and acclaimed science fiction writer Stephen Baxter, The Long Earth transports listeners to the ends of the earth-and far beyond. All it takes is a single step ...

Review :
The Long Earth is a brilliant Science Fiction collaboration with Stephen Baxter: a love letter to all Pratchett fans, readers, and lovers of wonder everywhere... This novel is a gift to be shared with anyone who loves to be amazed. -- "io9.com" Crammed with scientifically informed amusement. -- "Booklist" The authors have plenty of fresh insights to offer, and fans of either will want to tag along and see where it all leads. -- "Kirkus" The writing is elegant and witty...The worlds of the Long Earth are all richly rendered, and even the walk-on characters are deftly imagined...and the potential seems endless not just for the characters, but for Pratchett and Baxter as well. -- "Tor.com" Thought-provoking...slow-burning plot... fascinating premise. -- "Publishers Weekly"
