Reviews
" The Terraformers is so engaging, you could almost miss the pyrotechnic world-building and bone-deep intelligence. Newitz continues doing some of the best work in the field."--James S. A. Corey, author of the Expanse series "Fascinating and readable in equal measure, The Terraformers will remake your mind like its cast remakes an entire planet."--John Scalzi, author of The Collapsing Empire "Newitz performs a staggering feat of revolutionary imagination in this hopeful space-opera. . . . With the ethos of Becky Chambers and the gonzo imagination of Samuel R. Delany, plus a strong scientific basis in ecology and urban planning, this feels like a new frontier in science fiction."--Publishers Weekly, STARRED review "Newitz always sees to the heart of complex systems and breaks them down with poetic ferocity."--N. K. Jemisin, author of the Broken Earth trilogy and The City We Became "Brilliantly thoughtful, prescient, and gripping."--Martha Wells, author of The Murderbot Diaries "[Featuring] an appealingly diverse cast of rangers, scientists, engineers and an utterly endearing autonomous collective of sentient flying trains... The Terraformers, refreshingly, is the opposite of the dystopian, we're-all-doomed chiller that's become so common in climate fiction. Newitz's mordant sense of humor steers the story clear of starry-eyed optimism, but it's easy to imagine future generations studying this novel as a primer for how to embrace solutions to the challenges we all face."--Scientific American "An incredibly emotional and action-packed novel deftly taking on personhood, corporate ownership, and terraforming."--Library Journal, STARRED review "A complete refurbishment of the great galactic story of terraformers. The old pleasures of the planetary romance are reanimated in kaleidoscopic fashion. Startling fun!"--Kim Stanley Robinson, author of The Ministry for the Future "Annalee Newitz's ability to combine the wild west and the final frontier with plate tectonics and post humanism while spinning an epic tale that never loses sight of its characters is nothing short of magical. After reading The Terraformers you will want to live in Annalee Newitz's future."--Javier Grillo-Marxuach, creator of The Middleman and producer on Lost and The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance "Newitz's latest is far-reaching and ambitious but also surprisingly cozy and warm. . . . Newitz has a true gift for exploring the tweaks, movements, and decisions that keep history moving forward centuries ahead, and for digging into weighty issues while maintaining light humor, a delightful queer sensibility, and pure moments of joy."--Booklist, STARRED review "While the novel entices with its brilliant and varied cast of human and nonhuman characters (I was particularly taken by Rocket the drone, Scrubjoy the train, and those moose), it also offers a serious and hopeful template that's a lot closer to home than all those distant light-years and centuries might at first suggest."--Locus Magazine, " The Terraformers is so engaging, you could almost miss the pyrotechnic world-building and bone-deep intelligence. Newitz continues doing some of the best work in the field."--James S. A.

Synopsis
From science fiction visionary Annalee Newitz comes The Terraformers , a sweeping, uplifting, and illuminating exploration of the future. Destry's life is dedicated to terraforming Sask-E. As part of the Environmental Rescue Team, she cares for the planet and its burgeoning eco-systems as her parents and their parents did before her. But the bright, clean future they're building comes under threat when Destry discovers a city full of people that shouldn't exist, hidden inside a massive volcano. As she uncovers more about their past, Destry begins to question the mission she's devoted her life to, and must make a choice that will reverberate through Sask-E's future for generations to come. A science fiction epic for our times and a love letter to our future, The Terraformers will take you on a journey spanning thousands of years and exploring the triumphs, strife, and hope that find us wherever we make our home. "Brilliantly thoughtful, prescient, and gripping." -- Martha Wells, author of The Murderbot Diaries Also by Annalee Newitz Autonomous The Future of Another Timeline

- t***e (93)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufDescription of 'like new' was accurate, book arrived a couple of days ahead of estimated date, and it arrived in a slightly padded envelope but no damage was on the book. The price was a little high for a book that's 2 years old, but cheaper than what I found elsewhere. I would buy from this seller again.
- d***m (16)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe manga came just as described by Big River Books and I am overall very happy with it. One thing that really impressed me was the way, the team handled some issues/false tracking info, which was 100% caused by errors on my and the delivering company's side. They handled the situation with utmost patience and were very customer orientated, which I do not take for granted, considering the circumstances.
