There was nothing, and then there was a train. A train with two passengers: a petty thief from a dead-end town, and an android girl who could be more human than the rest of us. Join Zen and Nova as they find out what really lies beyond the end of the universe....

Full of extraordinary beings and utterly real, complex characters, this is a stunning step beyond the universe we already know....

Critic reviews

"Thrilling, melancholic and philosophical all at the same time." ( Financial Times)
All stars
Most relevant
Philip expands the world to cosmic levels (pun intended) but also delves into the tragic past, as both intersect in the second book of the Railhead Trilogy. While we did not spend too much time with the Aliens, i think it was enough to offer a glimpse into what the humans were missing. I would not have minded some extra hours exploring the Web of Worlds, but alas, plot has to happen and stuff needs to get done.
Looking forward to the Conclusion!
