A Long Way to a Small Angry Planet

[Michael]

Loved. Loved. Loved. So different that the overwhelming, vast majority of science fiction that I've read. Any thoughts?

[Suzanne]

I loved it too. I think the reason it's so different is that its very character-driven vs. idea driven. And I loved the characters. I've seen some people who read it complain that not a lot happened. But I was totally into learning about that crew.

[Michael]

I was startled by the nonviolence theme in the novel. Very unusual for science fiction, at least in my experience.

I loved this one, too!

It was great to get away from the constant themes of "dark, death, kill, rape" that seem to be so popular today. Thank goodness! I loved the entire crew.

I'm excited to read this, it's on my list. I don't know if the sequel is out yet but after all I've heard about them I just can't wait.

I look forward to reading your thoughts on the actual discussion page. I'm recommending this book to everyone I know.
