"The Just Beyond is great adventure in a seriously cool fantasy/SciFi
setting, one that surprises regularly (about every other chapter). But what
moves it beyond "good read" material is that the story is a carrier
wave for some big ideas about the nature of man, life and the universe in which
we live. The author has an awareness about him that he brings to his audience
in the form of a really good story. I was particularly taken with the artful
presentation of a truth that can so easily elude one - that the condition in
which one finds himself is the result of his own creation. Given the good work
of Mr. Tucker and the value of his book, I suspect conditions will be very good
for him (worked out pretty well for his hero)."

“Too amazing for words, but I'm going to words anyway. Read
this book, because it's going to suck you in and devour your day. Really, put
dinner in the crock pot beforehand and set a reminder to pick the kids up from
school. You've got a great book to read.”
- Reader review "This book has an awesome mix of science, science fiction and spirituality. The best part- nice guys are cool. The book is easy to get caught up in for hours and I have had to force myself to put it down. The chapter on quantum theories had me looking up the theories and wanting to read more about them. I can't wait for the next two books."
- Reader review "No fluff here... The story and vivid picture it painted touched my heart and beliefs about the now life and the afterlife, was thoroughly enjoyable and great reminder of the importance and role of doing the right thing, even when it's not the easiest thing... This is a book you'll want to reread..."
- Reader review "I loved this book. I can't wait for the next one to come out. I think Mark Tucker is a fantastic writer... fascinating to read."

"Even though I am just over half through the book I can't wait to finish and looking forward the next one in the series. While I often read two or three books at a time I have not been able to get back to Dan Brown's 'Inferno' since I started reading 'The Just Beyond'. Without a doubt this one goes on my top 10 list."
- Reader review "Really enjoyed this. Interesting characters, fast paced and I loved the mix of fantasy and science fiction. Looking forward to the next book in the series."
- Reader review "I really enjoyed this book. The plot was intriguing, and nothing ever happened the way I expected it to. I totally connected to the characters... This book kept me up late into the night, reading until I just couldn't keep my eyes open."
- Reader review "Strong characters, intricately beautiful settings and wildly provocative plot twist, this story is one I will never forget. I can’t wait to read the next two books in the series!!"

"Michael is a self sacrificing do-gooder who goes out of his way to help others. With his share of loss in his life he still has faith in right and wrong... I can't say I have one favorite part because every single time he makes someone else's day I fell in love with him a little more. But every time disaster strikes him I cried for him too."
- Critic review "I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found it a fast-paced adventure with interesting character development. Road trip, chase story, a combination of science and fantasy ... the author had me guessing what would be next without being predictable."
- Reader review "I could not wait to read each chapter to see what happened next ... The just beyond is a world we all hope to be in when the time comes. This book is well written and keeps interest in the characters. Michael is someone I want to know better. The book is a novel that I did not want to end."
