This book was a classic the minute Octavia Butler wrote it. And it has life far beyond its beginnings.

I was surprised how appropriate it was again, experiencing it in 2025. Chilling and human and beautiful.

… amidst a mash-up of been there, read that. I thought the beginning was quite promising, but it was interesting enough to sustain me. The performance of the narrator was excellent.

I wanted this to be a lot better than it was. Great performances from great actors but marred by a flimsy yet heavy-handed script. Sadly I laughed a couple of times at a moment’s absurdity.

This one was fun. The authors avoided obvious tropes, and while it had strong echoes of a very famous graphic novel, it was well acted and well presented.

While parts of the book suffer inevitably from being written at a different time, the contradictions of Gully Foyle and the utterly bizarre nature of Bester’s universe make for a wonderful book.

An excellent and sprawling classic piece of 70s science fiction. More about politics and psychology, and the impact of meeting an alien species then about space battles, although they’re in there too. Classic Niven and Pournelle.

Very entertaining and quick read. This is a classic locked room whodunnit and for me stood out because I learned so much about this period in Japan, the behaviors and social mores of the time. Quite fascinating.

Children of the Mind was beautifully written and beautifully performed. It was philosophical and slow moving and utterly engaging.

This is by no means a great work of literature, but it was a very enjoyable read.

I’m not the audience for this… I went all the way through, as I enjoyed the lush Gothic narrative… But cut it done with more horrible horror. Having said that I did enjoy the splash of Lovecraftian miasma.
