THE GATE OF INFINITY *****

OFFICIAL REVIEW  

By Phillip G. Brewer Feb 24, 2024

The Gate of Infinity by Chris Cal is a story about a person who learns special powers from a group of diviners who moved from Peru to Switzerland at the beginning of the twentieth century. Wanting to pass on their knowledge, they travel to Italy, Greece, and France to train the apprentices of the next generation.

Chris, from a young age, seeks knowledge succeeding in 1990 to discover a method to influence the future with the help of tarot cards. So he invokes three things: To meet his soulmate, to succeed as a medium, and to meet the true mentor who will lead him to self-realization. By meeting Antonio Socrates Comino Cueva achieves all three at the same time. But because he has caused it himself by invocation, it burdens his karma, and since he does not continue to assist in the maintenance of what has been acquired, events come that turn everything upside down.

This book is exciting because it introduces us to a world full of mystery and adventure, and broadens our mind about what it has to do with parallel worlds.

In the first part, Meditation of Light, we meet many real characters such as Eugenia, an oppressed woman, Giuseppe, a fickle womanizer, Menelaus, born with magical powers that have marginalized him from the first years of his life, Lena a brilliant emancipated woman, and many more faces that make you realize that the story at its base is true.

In the second part, Parallel Worlds, the puzzle of an ancient divination art is completed, and mathematical harmony is revealed through exercises that expand perception. At the same time, the action continues unabated.

In the third part, A Journey to the True Universe, the following events are completely unexpected to the point where you cannot put the book down. Creatures from other worlds appear to aid in the evolution of the apprentices. The first mentor of the caste remains alive for centuries thanks to his stay in the True Universe.

The author knows how to keep the interest of the reader, he has humor, a romantic soul, and perfect mathematical thinking. However, it gets a bit tiresome sticking to the details. He should cut three to four pages by removing some repeats for the time games in the various universes and the gates between them. These were the only dislikes I could point out while reading. However, this did not affect my reading. I will rate this book five out of five stars.
