5.0 out of 5 stars
The Final and the finest volume of the WHITE QUEEN trilogy.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Phoenix Cafe (Hardcover)
In White Queen the aliens arrived, and not everyone on Earth was pleased. North Wind brought us back to an Aleutian-run Earth. With Phoenix Café, three hundred years have brought us to a nearly decimated Earth, but one with a united purpose -- everyone wants the Aleutians gone, especially the Aleutians. Miss the Aleutian characters from previous books? You're in luck. Or not. Almost no one in Phoenix Café is who or what they appear. That's part of what Jones does best, destroying assumptions and keeping the reader off-balance. Assumptions about sex and sexuality are the first to go.

Phoenix Cafe,
By A Customer
This review is from: Phoenix Café (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book. It brings to an end one of the best trilogies I have ever read in SF. The characters are,as ever in a Jones novel, well developed in a 3 dimensional way (no make that 4 dimensions since time is a very important element). The development of the electronic arts scene is mind blowing. The science is convincing. There is rather a lot of weird sex but who's complaining?I was just sorry when it ended that I would not be meeting these people again. |
