Telling the Bees starts as a mystery with techno-thriller vibes before developing into full-on cyberpunk. The writing is tight, the main character relatable and the quick pace and intriguing plot make it hard to put down.Mid-way through, the pace of the action drops off somewhat to allow the reader to catch up with the backstory, but the short chapters keep the story flowing well. The final third seemed slightly rushed and some of the key scenes are a bit forced as the author looks to wraps it up, but for a story of this length that's not entirely unexpected. In all, this novella packs a lot of plot into a quick-paced story that leaves enough threads open to allow for a sequel or perhaps an expansion into a full novel. Given the quality of the writing, I'd look forward to reading that! Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Exciting story with some interesting sci-fi elements. I enjoyed the exploration of technology & its ethical use.Since this is a novella, there is not a lot of space to tell the story. However, the author started the story quickly & told the story effectively, & so I felt rather satisfied by the time I reached the conclusion. The writing in general was excellent. It did a good job of making me feel the emotions of the protagonist. I thought the characters were solid, especially the protagonist. I do think it would have been interesting to explore Blake & Brea a bit more, but with the length of the story, I understand that would have been difficult. There were also a few questions left unanswered at the end. Overall, I greatly enjoyed reading this, & I would be interested in reading another story about these characters (or generally another story by this same author) Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

In the near-future, two strangers interrupt Sarah's idyllic rural existence, confronting her with knowledge of a life she has entirely forgotten, insisting she's a missing part of their hivemind. Their appearance leads her to an abandoned beehive and the strange, transparent cube that lies within. The cube contains memories, that much is certain, but are they her memories? When corporate soldiers invade her home, Sarah is forced to accept that something is going on and that these two strangers - Brea and Blake - know far more about it than she does. Her only option is to decode the cube, reclaim her memories, and rediscover a life she has tried so hard to avoid. But where exactly will that leave her, and why did she run from it in the first place? "An enthralling and unnerving tale from a writer to watch." - Gareth L. Powell "A pacy and exciting tale of memory, love and what you'd do to protect what it means to be human. Recommended." - Stewart Hotston Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
