5/14/2023 0 Comments Split Infinity by Piers Anthony![]() ![]() First volume of a trilogy that promises to be a sort of intellectual, semi-erotic Flash Gordon.Ī tightly wound caseworker is pushed out of his comfort zone when he’s sent to observe a remote orphanage for magical children. So there's an ethical climax with three women (well, a unicorn, a robot, and a lady) fighting over the hero-who must choose among them. ![]() Once again Stile's prowess at games stands him in good stead as he gains magical powers and comes to the attention of a sexy unicorn Neysa-and scintillatingly regal Lady Blue, whose husband is Stile's alter-image and whom he must kill. and then-on the lam from some unknown menace who has lasered poor Stile's knees during a horserace-he runs through a shimmering curtain and is transported materially into a fairyland of musical unicorns and magic castles and werewolves. A weird blending of robot-serviced cities with charmed, Malory-touched pastoral sorcery: Stile, the best jockey on the planet Proton and a master gamesplayer at the Games, finds himself challenged to a set of mild gladiatorial encounters by glorious android Sheen (she nearly bests him). ![]()
