Outside Eternity

Three Feet of Sky #2

by Stephen Ayres

If you were resurrected into a world of leisure, luxury, and immortality, would you leave?
Beyond the walls, Adam Eden encounters an enigmatic android, dangerously corrupted environments, and a popular Day Spa ... offering very alternative therapy.

After fighting and dying a hundred times, Adam Eden finally learns how to escape his enclosed environment. But, with his newfound celebrity status, does he really still want to leave? Maybe he has no choice.

Facing the unknown, Adam’s odyssey takes him further than he ever imagined. His fighting skills are blunted and resurrection is no longer guaranteed. With the stakes never higher, and confrontation looming, who will step up?

Placing trust in yourself is not always the answer.
When you are in two minds about your future, can you really control your destiny?

Finished it in a few days! Loved it and now never want to accept an invitation to s Day Spa!

In true bizarre Stephen Ayres fashion, Outside Eternity picks up where Three Feet of Sky left of. The storyline was just as way out as the first and just as enjoyable and unpredictable. There are some rather interesting characters introduced and some surprising twists. A very interesting look at what the afterlife could possibly be like in several hundred years, not to mention what lies in store for the human race!!
Would definitely recommend, but you must read Three Feet of Sky first.
Stephen is definitely one of my favourite authors at the moment and I shall be looking out for more of his work in the future. I'm very much looking forward to Book Three.

After reading 3 Feet of Sky I couldn't wait for book 2 and it did not disappoint - again there were great laugh out loud moments and some particularly gruesome bits. I highly recommend these books - my only criticism is that there was less of Stern the Hindreader in this book and I think that some of the best LOL moments involved the interaction between Stern and Adam but hey that's my opinion - I couldn't put the book down and am looking forward to book 3!

not a big sci do fan but found this most enjoyable. Is there a third book available? Yabba dabba do.

A worthy follow up to the amazing Three Feet Of Sky. Outside Eternity takes the story in a completely different direction. There is still violence and plenty of laughs and we learn much more about the miniature world.
The story ties up nicely at the end so I wonder if there will be a third book? I hope there is.

NOTE. I read this months ago and was a bit put off by typos and glitches (a 3 rating). My friend recently downloaded a new edited version and this is much better (a 4.7 rating).

This book is not as instantly accessible as the first book and for the first half of the book I was a little disappointed.
I felt the book strayed away from the first story and did not like where the story was going.

I'm glad I stuck with it though as by the end the story had come together very nicely and added explanation for the viro verse.

It felt like an ending of the story until the final paragraph clearly set it up for book 3.

After luckily stumbling upon Three Feet Of Sky, i again happen to come across the second installment of this story. I hope i don't have to long to wait, until the third book hits the kindle store.
This is one of those books you just cant seem to put down. I went into work, 3 days on the trot with matchsticks holding up my eyelids, just had to keep reading.

This is a very good book, I really enjoyed it. But (and there always is one), personally, I don't think it was as good as book 1. There are still some great and unique and unique ideas in here, but in several places I was able to predict the plot and it's not as ground breaking or as "different" as book one.

All that said, I really enjoyed it and I can recommend it to any other Scifi fans.

Great book, complements the Book 1. It would be hard for the author to write anything more imaginative. Well done.
