5.0 out of 5 stars
inventive and auspicious debut of high class, April 11 2002
By Henning Henning - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Carve the Sky (Paperback)
This is a gem of a book which I found by pure coinsidence in a small libraby. It is one of those futuristic novels which reawakens ones primal passion for the SF genre. It is a very sophisticated novel with the most lovable heroes. The plot equals the masters of the genre and a language like an aribian tresure. Zelazny said of this book, that it is everything a good science fiction novel should be - memorable characters, a well-realized future milieu, clever plotting, appropriate pacing. And he loved every minute of it. What more can be said?

Alexander Jablokov's "Carve the Sky" is a winner, Jun 28 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Carve the Sky (Paperback)
Carve the Sky is the only book by Alexander Jablokov that I have read. It was a great story and I want to read more stories by him.The setting for Carve the Sky takes place several hundred years in the future, humanity has spread throughout much of the solar system and each place has developed its own distinctive culture. The characters are highly intelligent and complex individuals whose outlooks and actions are influenced by their cultures. The futuristic settings and the characters in this novel are as interesting as the story itself (maybe even better).
If you liked Frank Herbert's Dune books, I think that you will like Carve the Sky as much or more. Highly Recommended..

An original SF thriller. Art in the future., Jan 23 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Carve the Sky (Paperback)
It's so rare to find a futuristic SF novel that dares deal with main stream art: painting / sculpture / whatever. To find a book that does it beautifully, in the background of a great detective plot full of interesting social structures and characters, well... I loved it. Oh yeah, I read it almost a year ago. This really is a book you'll remember.
