Customer Reviews

A genuine classic

This is a proper literary novel for grown-ups. The prose is beautiful, the characters memorable and nuanced, and the portrait of the cultures of Sibornal convincing and rich. Really, it's astounding that the Helliconia trilogy is not held in higher regard. It is one of the very best things that's ever come out of science fiction. The best book in the series is probably Summer, but this is a close second. My main gripe is that I wish it had been longer. Abro hakmo astab to all detractors!
