5.0 out of 5 stars
captivating, imaginative, and irresistably thought-provoking, March 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Heritage of the Star (Hardcover)
Embarassingly enough, I'd not even heard of Ms. Engdahl before my wife introduced me to her works (the star trilogy, etc.). This book, along with its sequels, has proven to be one of the most thought-provoking and captivating works that I've read in years... and that's saying quite a bit. Not only were the setting and plot creative, the characters were very accessible, personally... and I found special empathy with Noren's quest for meaning while blessed/cursed with a questioning mind that doesn't easily settle comfortably in one place. This book was stirring, touching, and hopeful in a very wise, subtle, and engaging way. I'm only sorry that the trilogy is ended! (Any change of a sequel...? :) )
