"Faithfully emulates van Vogt's labyrinthine plot twists and energetic prose while answering questions. . . . that have burned in fans' minds for decades." —Booklist
In this heart-stopping sequel to A.E. van Vogt's World of Null-A, Gilbert Gosseyn, the superhuman amnesiac with a double brain, must pit his wits once more against the remorseless galactic dictator Enro the Red and the mysterious shadow-being known as The Follower. And he must do it while he is being hurled headlong through unimaginable distances in space, in time, and through alternate eternities to fend off the death and complete the rebirth of the Universe itself!
Praise for John C. Wright
"An exciting voice, adding richness to hard science fiction." —David Brin, Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author of Existence

      Questions of identity and personal purpose fill this inconsistent sequel to A.E. van Vogt’s 1940s SF pulp thriller The World of Null-A
      . Gilbert Gosseyn, a double-brained telepath embroiled in intergalactic intrigue, struggles to undermine legendary clairvoyant Enro and his plot to take over or destroy the Milky Way. When one of Gosseyn’s clones kills the leaders of the Interstellar League, Gosseyn is left to battle Enro on his own. The often dizzying narrative acquires an ever-widening scope, eventually spanning all of space and time. Wright attempts to flesh out and make sense of van Vogt’s world while retaining a respectful distance from the original story. A mixed bag results, fluctuating between hectic action and a dense, plot-slowing web of conspiracy and psychology. The characters’ individual voices are sound, but their personalities do little to hold the reader’s interest. Though inventive, this problematic love letter to a long-gone era misses the mark.
