| Michael Poole's wormholes constructed in the orbit of Jupiter had opened the galaxy to humankind. Then Poole tried looping a wormhole back on itself, tying a knot in space and ripping a hole in time. It worked too well. Poole was never seen again.

Praise
New York Review of Science Fiction
"...the Xeelee Sequence and 'Ring' are cosmic-perspective science fiction of originality, high quality and great interest. They suggest that Baxter will be one of the major science-fiction writers of the turn of the century." - Philip E. Smith June 1997
