It was just a boring drive through the Nevada desert...until the Sonderberg family picked up a beautiful young hitchhiker named Mouse and found themselves on a wild, careening ride down the exit ramp to Hell. It seems the entire universe is doomed unless Mouse, a transdimensional alien, can find and heal the dying cosmic Spinner who controls the very fabric of reality. Suddenly attacked by a demonic gas station attendant, axe-wielding rats, and fire-breathing cops, the Sondberg family must become warriors in a now-mystical motor home and battle pangalactic diners, weird worlds, impossible voids, and brain-bending realms of madness. They're driving into a fantastic nightmare to save all creation at the Vanishing Point on the Cosmic Road...which happens to be US Interstate 40!

I read this book maybe over 30 years ago and loved it then. Loved it while someone read it to me.

Great story

I first read this book when I was a kid, and I have loved it ever since. Every once in a while I'll bring it back out and read it, or listen to it in my truck on long trips.

A book I will read, or listen to over and over!

This book has been a favorite of mine since I found a hardbound copy at a garage sale in the late 80's. I bought the book based on the cover picture, and the authors name. I had read and enjoyed Foster's Star Wars follow up Splinter of the Mind's Eye in 1979 so I recognized his name on the cover. However, I was not prepared for what came next. "To the vanishing point" is one of the most creative and engaging stories that I have read through out my life long obsession with books. I have read several books a month since my early teen years so it has been necessary for me to cross genres and seek out new authors to feed my addiction. I have no idea how to classify this book in the grand scheme of book subjects, and that is one of the reasons I love it. I have still not read another book like this after all these years. It is truly one of a kind, and stands out for it's originality across the hundreds of books that I have consumed. When someone asks me for something "completely different" to read this my go to recommendation. It is just an amazing story with outstanding characters. I lost my sight and no longer had access to printed material, so when this book came out in audio format, it was like reconnecting with an old friend. I have reread this books several times over the years and it never gets old for me.

One of my all time favorites.
