Historia
Tao is an immigrant fortune teller, traveling between villages with just her trusty mule for company. She only tells "small" fortunes: whether it will hail next week; which boy the barmaid will kiss; when the cow will calve. She knows from bitter experience that big fortunes come with big consequences…

A wonderfully sweet story of finding a family.
Revisado: 12-09-24
This is a story about hurt people finding each other through a long journey together. The characters are deep, their backstories well thought out, and the world they inhabit built for us through conversation instead of long lore dumps.
It is sweet and gentle. With the narrator doing a wonderful job bringing the characters to life.

Historia
Cassie did not feel the soul rider enter her body...but suddenly she knew that Anchor was corrupt, and that, far from being a formless void from which could issue ony mutant changelings and evil wizards, Flux was the soure of Anchor's very existence.
The price of her new knowledge is exile, yet Cassie and the Rider of her soul are the only hope for the redemption of both Flux and Anchor.

I remember devouring this series when I was in my mid teens. coming back to it more than 20 years later I still enjoyed it. The world is an interesting one, and this is one of the few series I'm aware of to directly address ideas about gender and identity.

Historia
Planted by interstellar probes on hundreds of human-occupied worlds, the downloaded personalities of Raj Whitehall and the ancient battle computer known as Center work together for planetary unity. Their goal is to prepare those worlds for membership in the Second Federation of Man. But on one planet they do the opposite: on Visager they work to prevent unity.

I first read this book decades ago... and it is still a solid work. Franklin Pierson does an outstanding job bringing these characters to life. even giving them accents where needed.

Historia
On the world called Hyperion, beyond the law of the Hegemony of Man, there waits the creature called the Shrike. There are those who worship it. There are those who fear it. And there are those who have vowed to destroy it. In the Valley of the Time Tombs, where huge, brooding structures move backward through time, the Shrike waits for them all.

a book I have always loved
Revisado: 09-23-18
I first read this story back when I was in high school. It came in a bound version with the "Fall of Hyperion". it had long been a favorite of mine, and I've read it many times over the twenty odd years since. the original copy still sits on my shelf, but the many readings have rendered it delicate. I also own a paperback copy, that I picked up some years back so that I could read it without fear of the book coming apart in my hands.
The story is one of mystery, passion, prophecy, and a vision of worlds more exotic then I could have imagined before. Reading it opened my mind to possibilities that I'd never before guessed at. The world is rich, alive, as are the characters found within.
these days I don't have as much time as I once had to read... so I picked up this audio book. the voice acting is amazing, and from now on this is how the characters will sound in my head
