An entirely alien cast race across the multiverse in search of a priceless map of the realities in this thrilling cosmic space opera! The galaxy of Yokkun's Depth has been settled since time immemorial. There is only one frontier left, and it's a one-way journey: to pierce the skin of existence and delve the countless younger universes beneath. Running through these universes is the fabled Well, a fissure formed in the distant past into which horrors have been flung for millions of years. Amongst their number was an impossibly ancient sorcerer, cast down into the wastelands of a thousand apocalyptic worlds, never to return. Until now. Whirazomar is crossing the stars in the belly of a sentient spore, hoping she can make it to the Well before her masters' rivals realise what she's hunting: somewhere far below them, a hapless explorer has drafted a map of reality. A map that the exile is sure to seek out. A map so valuable that a kaleidoscope of beings will run the gauntlet of every universe to get it, even at the cost of their lives. Industry praise for The Immeasurable Heaven, by Caspar Geon: “An absolutely wild ride through a formidably original universe, filled with the bizarre and phantasmagorical.” - Adrian Tchaikovsky, Clarke award-winning author of Children of Time “Fearlessly creative, wildly imaginative, and wholly satisfying.” - Gareth L. Powell, author of the Embers of War series “Wildly, explosively imaginative, the Immeasurable Heaven is a feast of a book: among the most original science fiction I've read in years.” - Stark Holborn, author of the Factus sequence “The intrigue, character, humour, plot, worldbuilding, and sheer breadth of imagination makes the Immeasurable Heaven a truly exceptional piece of sci-fi. The best and most original book I’ve read in years.” - Edward Cox, author of the Relic Guild trilogy “Easily the most exciting and significant science fiction imagination since Iain M. Banks.” - Jon Wallace, author of the Barricade trilogy “If you're the sort of person who likes to have your brain bent in the best possible way, you really need to give this a read. This book is a wild ride, and I promise you won't regret it.” - Ed Ashton, author of Mickey7 “Widescreen space opera crafted by a unique writer, stately and exuberant in detail. Escape from mundane reality to this slice of epic, bold, multiversal, sci-fi heaven..” - Eeleen Lee, author of Liquid Crystal Nightingale “One of the widest canvases I’ve ever read in an SFF novel… an experience like few others, in a setting completely alien to our own. If you want to immersively escape the world, this book provides that in spades.” - Paul Weimer, Nerds of a Feather "A ferociously propulsive feat of sustained cosmic invention, revelling in precisely-imagined impossibilities and casually revealing extraordinary new vistas with almost every new sentence. Bravo!" - Al Robertson, author of the Station series “An imaginative tour de force, every page dripping with interesting tidbits of detail.” - SciFiScavenger
