Linda Evans. Joelle Presby. The Union of Arcana has expanded through the portals linking parallel universes for over a century and a half. In that time, its soldiers and sorcerers have laid claim to one uninhabited planet after another, all of them Earth, and in the process, the Union has become the most powerful, most wealthy civilization in all of human history. But all of that is about to come to The Union of Arcana has expanded through the portals linking parallel universes for over At Hells Gate: A Soldiers Journey from War to Peace century and a half. But all of that is about to come to a screeching halt, for the Union's scouts have just discovered a new portal, and on its At Hells Gate: A Soldiers Journey from War to Peace side lies a shattering revelation. Arcana is not alone, after all. There is another human society, Sharona, which has also been exploring the Multiverse, and the first contact between them did not go well. Arcana is horrified by the alien weapons of its sudden opponents, weapons its sorcerers cannot explain or duplicate. Weapons based upon something called. But Sharona is equally horrified by Arcana's "magical" weapons. Neither side expected the confrontation. Both sides think the other fired first, and no one on either side understands the "technology" of the other. But as the initial disastrous contact snowballs into all-out warfare, both sides can agree on one thing. The portal which brought them together is Hell's Gate itself! Get A Copy. Hardcoverpages.

Excellent stuff and with an implied promise of at least two more books with a reasonable ending and obviously more if sales allow it as DW hinted at lots and lots of convolutions, including Dragons exploding through a portal on our Earth at some future timehighly recommended for a fast and addictive read with the usual inventiveness, great characters and all one expects from a David Weber universe novel Dec 15, M Hamed rated it it was amazing Shelves:western-fantasy.

An ending which left the reader not hanging on a cliff but tumbling over it. That said, the universes yes, more than one involved were well conceived and developed. That the geography of all of them is identical with the Earth helped the reader locate the action somewhat. The humanoid cast was large, sprawling, and not well enough differentiated from one culture to another. In fact, the bad guys tended to bl Corrected typos in March 23, This one had four stars in the bag and blew it. In fact, the bad guys tended to blur regardless of which side they were on. My inclination is to suggest you read a synopsis of this book and go straight to the second. Despite that, a good space opera, as you'd expect of the author of the At Hells Gate: A Soldiers Journey from War to Peace Harrington books. Addendum after completing Hell Hath No Fury : no,you can't skip this book or read the Wikipedia synopsis. Apr 07, Kathy Davie rated it it was amazing Shelves: sci-fimilitary. First in the start of a new military sci-fi series, the Multiverse. I know, it sounds like a working series title, but it is accurate. My Take The culture shock when Sharona and Arcana encounter each other, not knowing the language of the other, is tremendous with the story a fascinating exploration of how a simple misunderstanding can lead to mistakes that affect the governments of numerous At Hells Gate: A Soldiers Journey from War to Peace and escalate military action. Weber and Evans take full advantage of the variety of human greed a First in the start of a new military sci-fi series, the Multiverse. Weber and Evans take full advantage of the variety of human greed and its kindness to create a complex pair of worlds with characters we love and hate. It will certainly make you question the validity of sides. The story indicates that Shaylar is madly popular on Sharona, so her supposed death rouses the entire planet to overwhelming anger with hordes of men enlisting in the army to avenge her death. But other than that she's the first woman to be part of a survey party which the Portal Authority exploits by using her as the face of their portal exploration marketing efforts, I don't understand why she is so loved and adored. You can imagine how the Sharonians reacted when Shaylar's experience was projected by the equivalent of a Voice News channel! Their entire world is shocked and terrified of war coming to them and everyone immediately goes to a war footing — troops and logistics, a Conclave of all the rulers leading to a demand for a world government. On Jasak's side, he's an Arcadan, we don't really learn about his world [Arcana] in general but more about how it affects him and his party. The animosity from the Mythalans comes through pretty clear and we learn about Rasnaran beliefs and history, but nothing like we learn of the Sharonians. The dialog is definitely appropriate although the conversations between Andrina and her father are just too good to be true. Thank god for fiction where we can create the world we want! The end sets up even more tension with the Arcanans about to attack although they're supposedly in truce talks with the Sharonians — I get the distinct impression that Jasak's people are more interested in pursuing war with their various agendas than in attempting to resolve the initial errors. And the Sharonians have finally voted on who's to run the new empire…a vote with which the cetaceans are oddly concerned. Oddly, because the dolphins and whales of Sharona have never been interested in the politics of man before. Of even greater concern was when Shaylar's parents learned of her "death", and the entire bay erupted in cetacean anger. Weber and Evans have done a lovely job of creating two completely different universes composed of various countries each of which has its own culture, animosities, and alliances. I must admit to a partiality for the Sharonians. I love their almost universal values, and they certainly seem more interested in peace than the Arcanans! The Story Two separate peoples from two separate universes exploring portals, which take them to unexplored universes until, inevitably, the two exploring parties meet by accident, in accident. A scout from each side manages to kill each other in a way that terrifies their own teams, leading to a cockup of massive proportions — and points out the stupidity of promoting people based on patronage rather than merit! The only two Sharonian survivors of a mistaken attack, Shaylar and Jathmar, are taken prisoner by Sir Jasak Olderhan, an honorable hundred who must protect their lives from his own people and is helped by Magister Gadrial Kelbryan. Unfortunately for the Arcanans, Shaylar is a Voice and projected the entire attack to another Voice who experienced everything Shaylar did until she was struck unconscious. The Characters Aracana is… …a planet that manipulates the energies of their world, using magic, to function as a manufacturing-farming-military society. Sir Jasak Olderhan 's rank is hundred and he is an Andaran, a very honorable race, who takes the two surviving Sharonians prisoner. Magister Gadrial Kelbryan is a Ransaran. Sharona is… …a planet that runs on the standard mechanical gadgets, although a percentage of the population has Talent. Shaylara Voice, is married to Jathmarwhose Talent is Mapping, are the only At Hells Gate: A Soldiers Journey from War to Peace of a mistaken attack. Shalassar and Thaminar At Hells Gate: A Soldiers Journey from War to Peace farmer are Shaylar's parents; her mother has a Talent for speaking with cetaceans and is the ambassador for her country to the whales and dolphins, who have a vote on their planet. A Voice can project their experiences to another Voice in complete Technicolor. Talent is the mental ability to speak over long distances, see the vagaries of the terrain for several miles, sense if someone is lying, speak to sentient species, etc. Mythalans comes through pretty clear. The Cover and Title The cover is rather dorky. Two combatants are framed within what I'm assuming is a representation of the contested portal with one man armored and fighting with an axe atop an armored horse against a foot soldier. The title is one thing Sharona and Arcana can agree on: the portal each came through is Hell's Gate. Mar 18, Kjirstin rated it it was amazing Shelves: audio. Compelling story! Two very different civilizations blunder into each other and, through a series of escalating terrible mistakes and misunderstandings, manage to get sucked into a state of war with each other.
