Implied Spaces

A swordsman walks out of a pocket universe with a talking cat and a problem.

Aristide is a computer scientist on holiday in a fantasy world he helped design, travelling with a cat that argues with him. Implied spaces are the accidental corners left over when you build pocket universes.

A gleeful, erudite adventure that starts as sword-and-sorcery pastiche and unfolds into a serious singularity novel.
