frankie Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I would echo Steve's opinion ^. There's something to the character of Gully Foyle, in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karsa Orlong Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 And echoing VF's Sheri Tepper recommendation, Grass is very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vodkafan Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hmm.. a murderous grudge? Was there more to it than that? I've bought the first McCaffrey dragon book, as I don't mind a bit of fantasy, and The Ship Who Sang is on the wish list. A reviewer described Restoree as 'chick lit in space' which wouldn't be my thing. Is that fair? The Blue World might be worth a look, I've certainly heard the author mentioned a lot. The Margarets also looks intriguing.. but why so many feminist recommendations for me? Do I give off feminist vibes or something? hehe Well I just bought those up because those authors had aleady been mentioned and they jogged my memory....to be honest it's a very long time since I read Restoree but the premise it is based on (why she is a restoree and what it means-I don't want to give it away) really caught my imagination when I was a kid. It's not anymore chick-litty than say, Hunger Games. to the Jack Vance, I would add To Live Forever (aka Clarges) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
