This was my favorite of the series: the Draka gets caught in a time warp and travels back into a more familiar history to the reader. We get the POV of a human homicide detective who I like very much. This story seemed to go better for me because it had heroes who I actually wanted to win. I could empathize with them. I don't like the Draka. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheDraka (4)
Gwendolen Ingolfsson, hurled into a parallel Earth filled with billions of unaltered, antique humans when the molehole experiment she was working on malfunctioned, is very clear where her duty lies. As a member of the Draka, genetically engineered to dominate crude, unmodified humans, her task is to build a molehole device in this universe and establish a bridgehead for the Race to come through. It had been some time since the Draka last had such an opportunity for conquest... As for Detective-Lieutenant Henry Carmaggio, he'd seen plenty of blood, both in Cambodia and in twenty years of police work. But he'd never seen anything like this. Something was loose in his city, something inhuman that walked among us, killing with the easy precision of a leopard in a flock of sheep. And unless he could track it down it would kill and kill again - until the whole world was its hunting ground. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

That is really nitpicking, however. This is a good read and any Stirling fan will enjoy it. It is close to being my favorite Stirling novel. The plot is intricate, the writing is good, the characters are realistic, including the featured and minors, and the story does not drag. He makes the interplay between 1999 Earth and the technology of 2442 believable. Good stuff.
