Exile

by Michael P. Kube-McDowell

Book Overview

In the stifling and controlled world of the storm-ravaged and sun-baked planet Taurin, Meer Faschen has learned to work within the system. Faschen even sat as judge and sentenced his mentor to exile. But now Faschen has received word that his old friend is dead, his dying breath a request that Faschen alone return his body . Reminiscent of Arthur C. Clarke at his best --New York Newsday.

Customer Reviews

This is one of my favorite books of all time

In just a few pages Michael P. Kube-McDowell manages to create a complex, believable alien culture. He crafted his characters and setting with such vivid detail, I find myself thinking of this world often. It leads me to re-read this story yet again. I am now on my sixth reading and enjoying it as thoroughly as the first read.
