A review by battykat
Elegy Beach by Steven R. Boyett
4.0
I'm glad he wrote the sequel, even tho he never intended to. And writing a sequel nearly 30 years later- literally, not just in the timeline of the story- has got to be difficult.
I made some wry remarks about some of the tech mentioned in this book that didn't exist back when Ariel was created, but he addresses that in his afterward. Can't say I totally agree, but then, it's not my story!
I'm a little saddened by the end, both for what happens to characters, and that it's THE END of this particular world, this series, these books. But then, if it's a book you like, shouldn't you be a little sad when you reach the end?
Love love love the term, Generation Eloi. Makes perfect sense to me.
