Otherland is a realm of the imagination where anything can happen, a triumph of
technology, a virtual world of enormous complexity and possibility. But Otherland

But even there, the danger will not be over ...
In the Otherland series, Tad Williams' extraordinary imagination and storytelling skills have combined to create a rich, powerful and utterly compelling tale. It is one of the most remarkable works in the history of genre fiction.
