4.0 out of 5 stars
A Sci-fi outing from McKillip
Although not one of Paticia McKillips's best books, 'The Moon and the Face' is an entertaining venture into Sci-Fi. The two main characters, Kyreol and Terje, come from a simple, primitive world called Riverworld.

This is one of McKillip's few Sci-Fi works, and like her other Sci-Fi, it just doesn't match her level of Fantasy writing. The characters are reasonably believable, but thank...

A Sci-fi outing from McKillip,
By A Customer
This review is from: Moon And The Face (Paperback)
Although not one of Paticia McKillips's best books, 'The Moon and the Face' is an entertaining venture into Sci-Fi. The two main characters, Kyreol and Terje, come from a simple, primitive world called Riverworld. Since their discovery of higher technology and more advanced worlds elsewhere, they have determined that they could never return to their birthplace. But a series of events brings them face to face with their past.This story is told with the lyrical and eloquent use of language that is typical of McKillip. It contains elements of romance and action, and is recommended.

This is one of McKillip's few Sci-Fi works, and like her other Sci-Fi, it just doesn't match her level of Fantasy writing. The characters are reasonably believable, but thank goodness the book isn't longer than it is, otherwise it would have got boring. The best part of it is the interaction between the heroine and the entirely strange creature she meets while stranded after her ship crashed. |
