Escape from Hell

Bestselling duo Larry Niven--winner of multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards--and Jerry Pournelle return in the sequel to #1 New York Times bestseller "Inferno". Sci-fi writer Allen Carpenter, who in the first novel was guided through a twentieth-century re-imagining of Dante's nine circles of hell, feels the call to return and free those souls unfairly imprisoned in hell. Guided by poet (and suicide victim) Sylvia Plath, Carpenter plays the role of Christ, intending to re-enter hell and free the damned. Will he achieve his task? Or will he too be damned to the inferno forever? "Escape from Hell" is a worthy sequel to "Inferno", and will not disappoint fans of Niven and Pournelle.
