Customer Reviews

A wonderful author that will be missed

I bought the first book along with the second book in tandem since I like books that just dont end. I have to guess I purchased these in about 1999 or so and bought both The Shadows of Aggar and Fires of Aggar. I am somewhat embarrased to say that it wasnt until last night September 15th 2004 that I decided to look up the author Chris Anne Wolfe to see what she was doing. This was of course after finally reading the dedication to the second book. I used the internet to 'google' the author and found 2 more books by her that I will likely purchase. I was greatly saddened to hear that she lost her battle with cancer. I have seen some reviews out there on the internet that bash her style and writing, but I am one to say that these books have been great re-reads over the years, perhaps I am simplistic in the type of escapism I seek when reading, but I will continue to treasure them and mourn the fact that there will be no more sequels. I identified with characters, understood the emotions of others and was not lost in the techno babble I have found curiously present in some of the more recent writers of this type of fiction. Inventing in the mind is a wonderful thing, being able to convey the concept is a gift. Chris Anne Wolfe does that well. My most recent read was a huge disappointment which is why perhaps I decided rather than trying out something new, I would reread something I knew appealed to me. I wish she had been granted the time to publish more than the 4 books I have found to read.

Great sequel

If you liked Shadows of Aggar you'll enjoy this too. If you haven't read Shadows then get it first! Both are imaginative enjoyable lesbian sci-fantasy with well thought through characters and romance with plenty of suspense.
