mariareads8 's review for:
A Fire Upon the Deep
by Vernor Vinge
So, after 579 pages, is it ever that serious?
Honestly, yes?
We follow two perspectives: one on the medieval dog world and the other thousands of light years away in space. Although I could've gotten more out of the OOB side of the story, I absolutely loved how much we explored the Tines world. The world building was so fascinating.
Vernor Vinge also imagines interstellar communication to be a sort of a forum where you subscribe to certain threads. We get a glimpse of these threads from time to time and I loved reading them, it really captures the spirit of the internet of the 90s.
