This review is from: Dryland's End (Paperback)
I love Science Fiction, and this book is superb! The setting is High Space Opera, like many S.F. novels, but the story and the plot is very original, and some common SF topoi are intertwined in a very bizarre way. We are at the end of a millenary Galactic Empire,the Matriarchy, ruled by matronal domineering women. Ay'r,the protagonist, his somewhat dubious companion Pa'l and a representative of the Matriarchy, are sent to the flooding world Pelagia on a mysterious mission, mysterious particularly for Ay'r, who's been given very little information. The exploration of the doomed world of Pelagia, its rapidly developing tribes, the strange mythology of the inhabtants, all of this is magnificently rendered. Meanwile, a cyber-rebellion threathens the Matriarchy and all humanity. The solution to this crisis is somewhat linked to what happens on Pelagia...
Dryland's End Galaxy it's also a book about the eternal confrontation of the sexes, on sex mores and differences, that shall find a solution that would have pleased Storm Constantine.
It's a book on many endings, that end with a beginning: one of the best science fiction novels I've read. Isaac Asimov meets Storm Constantine and Ursula K. Le Guin, so to speak. Very original!
