Stunning!

My well worn paperback of TLD says all that needs saying about this amazing book. I weep for the future of sci-fi/fantasy if TLD is not brought back into print. Dan: This story is a gem. Don't give up on us; we're not going anywhere.

Still good after all these years...

I am one of the lucky ones. I stumbled across Emerald Eyes in a library in Cleveland the year it was published (1988). Since then I have included DKM as one of my must-read authors (Vernor Vinge, Neal Stephenson, David Brin, Dean Ing, W.T. Quick, Ken Macleod & sometimes Bruce Sterling being the others). Someday, someone will inherit my library - so watch the obituaries in 2060. Anyhow, the dearth of good science (or speculative) fiction these days has forced me into rereading my collection. After a span of eight years, I read the Last Dancer again last week... I had forgotten much of the detail and my opinion of the book has changed now that I am older - it is every bit as good as the prior novels, just different in tone. I don't know the details, but it seems a tragedy befell DKM during the writing of this book. That, and the work he has done since makes me wonder if we will see the balance of this epic story arc. Dan, if you're out there - you're one of the best, if you are going to do another, do it right and take however much time you need...

Publisher - We want more. GET A CLUE!!!

Without a doubt, this is one of the best science fiction novels ever written. It is a credit to the genre. Moran made vivid characters come to life, and successfully interwove a variety of themes and stories into one integrated whole. Why, oh why, can't the publishers abandon their money-is-god attitude and at least support a few authors for the sake of good literature? I am anxiously awaiting the next novel in this series, and I hold my nose at the Dungeons and Dragons garbage he's working on now. Yo, Daniel, if you read this, I'm also a writer. I know how difficult a task the book was for you, but it's well worth the effort. To read your reviews is to realize that. Now heed your fans and write another!

Incredible Detailed Plot Action

Intricate detailed description of action. Many richly intriguing characters. All set to a stage of of an all too real future way of life. I fell in love with Denise and found new appreciation for martial arts and dancing. I could believe it was a religious book it seems so telling... and perhaps it is and we're all waiting for the next glimpse of truth. If you have quality ideals and a thrist for adventure and excellent charaters then "The Last Dancer is a Must Read" & "ReRead" & "ReRead". I heard the next book is very near being issued.. The background story of the Continuing Time is so good and far reaching I wish it continues. I have a very hard time understanding why a publisher will not support Daniel Keys Moran's work and future work. A loyal fan- Jefree Green
