Review #8 - Dated: 1st of August, 2003
Author: Tucker |
Stunning, simply stunning. With a plot that spans thousands of years and millions of light-years, involving a cast of millions, this story really shows that within the imagination of great authors, there are no limits.
The first of the EVERGENCE trilogy, The Prodigal Sun opens up the story of Morgan Roche, an enigmatic woman with a shadowed past full of twists and turns that reveal nothing of her life before she join the Commonwealth of Empires. She has a vague beginning, a powerful present, but very little else of her life in between.
During her adventures she has two constant companions, The Box, and artificial intelligence created by a member of the High Human caste known only as The Crescend, with the power to be much, much more than it currently is, and Adoni Cane, an anonymous and potentially dangerous individual with all the skills and reflexes of a highly trained warrior, but no apparent memory of anything prior to his being discovered in a highly advanced lifepod floating in deep space mere days earlier.
