1.0 out of 5 stars
What a waste of time,
This review is from: Seasons of Plenty (Paperback)
What a huge waste of time and what an unexpected disappointment. The first book on Tabita Jute was paced, breathless, messy but highly entertaining.
'Seasons of Plenty' however is an absolutely pointless neverending saga of drugs abuse, more drugs abuse and then some more drugs abuse; insanily on top of insanily layered on insanity; violence left, right and center; inventive and constant cruelty to humans, alens and animals culminating in no visible 'moral of the story'; pain, murder and death over and over again; disconnected tangled events - total, total disappointment. It makes me wonder what state the author was in when writing the book and how on earth his publisher decided the book was fit for publishing. I've been reading science fiction since I was 4yrs old (Kir Bulichov, The Girl From Earth). I guess it is not easy to write books. But perhaps when it is just not happening, the author should leave it be, and go play golf for a while. Then come back a year later and write a book.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Seasons of Boredom,
By Michael Burschik (Berlin, Germany) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Seasons of Plenty (The Tabitha Jute trilogy) (Hardcover)
In "Take back Plenty", Tabitha Jute gained control of a very large alien spaceship fitted with a faster-than-light drive. In the second volume of the Plenty trilogy, she decides to make mankind's first interstellar voyage. The book starts quite well, and it ends with a great cliffhanger, but the six hundred odd pages in between seem rather unnecessary."Seasons of Plenty" is a story of breakdowns, the breakdown of Tabitha Jute, of order and sanity on the starship Plenty, and -- to a certain degree -- of the starship itself. This might have been entertaining if it had not been so very very long, or if the characters involved had at least been interesting, but that is not the case. Sometimes, I felt Greenland was trying to imitate M. John Harrison, and if he did, he failed spectacularly.
