Information sur l'oeuvreThe Long Cosmos par Terry Pratchett
   Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.  finlaaaay | Aug 1, 2023 |    ) freixas | Mar 31, 2023 | This has the advantage of at least only having one main plot thread, previous volumes usually had 3 or 4. This is still lumpy and messy, with extraneous side-quests and very dubious reasons for the presence of many characters. And i could have done without the movie references especially all the 'Contact' ones. But there are a few decent payoffs and character moments. Overall still not great but about as much of a finale as we could have expected from this series and the most coherent since the first book.

 For The Long Cosmos specifically, a good working knowledge of the film version of Carl Sagan's Contact is useful, as the book often plays out as a homage, while long-term fans will be excited to learn that as well as going east and west, we finally step north. Not all our questions are answered, but Baxter's scientific grounding will make you dwell once more on that chilling quantum idea that to exist is to be observed, as well as on more quotidian reflections about what is important in life – your family, your childhood and the connections you make. If you've been following the series from the beginning, the last chapter will make you cry, all on its own. And that's before you have to think about the fact that there will, now, be no more Pratchett books, and all that we have lost.

The main character is now in his seventies, so the aging authors wrote him a lot more successfully than before, in my opinion. The ending wasn't perfect but it was fitting. (
