Loret is fresh off the boat, and just in time. As Cohort-Invigilator of Correct Appreciation, Outreach department, she’s here as aide to the Palleseen Resident, Sage-Invigilator Angilly. And Sage-Invigilator Angilly – Gil to her friends – needs a second in the spectacularly illegal, culturally offensive and diplomatically inadvisable duel she must fight at midnight.

Epic world building & grand adventure
Revisado: 02-07-25
First rate narration and compelling cast of characters. Drawing on his expansive grasp of history he creates and empire out of time that feels very of-the-moment. Give this one a go. You may find yourself reflected it in, or not. No matter what, you will be entertained. Looking forward to the next installment.

The Pandominion: a political and trading alliance of a million worlds–except that they’re really just the one world, Earth, in many different realities. And when an AI threat arises that could destroy everything the Pandominion has built, they'll eradicate it by whatever means necessary, no matter the cost to human life.

In celebration of the week-long, once-in-a-decade rite of Apert, the fras and suurs prepare to venture outside the concent's gates - opening them wide at the same time to welcome the curious "extras" in. During his first Apert as a fra, Erasmus eagerly anticipates reconnecting with the landmarks and family he hasn't seen since he was "collected". But before the week is out, both the existence he abandoned and the one he embraced will stand poised on the perilous brink of cataclysmic change.

Epic Time Opera
Revisado: 11-09-24
Reminded me in some ways of “A Canticle for Leibowitz” in its exploration of science, faith, time, and the human condition. Great narration and good pacing. Recommend if you like classic literature and science fiction.

Four years ago, two girls went looking for monsters on Bodmin Moor. Only one came back. Lee thought she'd lost Mal, but now she's miraculously returned. But what happened that day on the moors? And where has she been all this time? Mal's reappearance hasn't gone unnoticed by MI5 officers either, and Lee isn't the only one with questions. Julian Sabreur is investigating an attack on top physicist Kay Amal Khan. This leads Julian to clash with agents of an unknown power - and they may or may not be human.

Another Amazing Work from a Living Legend
Revisado: 07-19-23
I’ve loved every one of the many Tchaikovsky books I’ve read and this one is among the finest. I think the way he builds worlds with aspects of hard Sci-Fi, historical fiction, magical realism, and epic fantasy is in a class of its own. What a gem of a book & credit due also to the fabulous narrator. I hope to visit this storyline again. Truly wonderful.

In many ways, Nona is like other people. She lives with her family, has a job at her local school, and loves walks on the beach and meeting new dogs. But Nona's not like other people. Six months ago she woke up in a stranger's body, and she's afraid she might have to give it back. The whole city is falling to pieces. A monstrous blue sphere hangs on the horizon, ready to tear the planet apart. Blood of Eden forces have surrounded the last Cohort facility and wait for the Emperor Undying to come calling. Their leaders want Nona to be the weapon that will save them from the Nine Houses.

Great author/series but Nona is hard to follow
Revisado: 10-23-22
Love the characters but this one was just too hard for me to get into. Gideon the Ninth was epic and accessible. The sequel, Harrow, was a bit tougher but still possible to follow/sort out what was going on. After eagerly awaiting/pre-ordering Nona, I just found it really difficult to fit into the other stories for the most part. Still love the world that has been built, but hoping Alecto makes a bit more (or any) sense. There was too much to fill in here, in terms of technological/mythological underpinning. I’ve finished and I’m completely unsure what it was all about.
