Nice little read

2 distinct stories slightly touching on each other, cost against content, small. Ut, could be worthwhile if following the whole line of books

Really alien

Revisado en Brasil el 9 de agosto de 2019

These two stories are each uniquely weird and alien in different ways. They show humans molding and conforming to something they barely understand, until they become inhuman themselves. With that said, Diamond Dogs fails to make their motivations believable or relatable. What should be dramatic becomes pettier as the story progresses, until we fail to care. On the other hand, Turquoise Days is extremely touching, but the storytelling is slow, up until resolution come suddenly and abruptly. Both stories are gems, but could be polished to 5-star grade.

Il primo racconto era troppo violento per i miei gusti e non sono riuscita a finirlo. Il secondo è stato bellissimo. Forse se avessi continuato l autore mi avrebbe sorpreso. Chissà? Un altra volta magari.

Fun, fast read for Revelation Space fans.

Being used to much larger books by Reynolds, I was surprised to receive this and see it was relatively slim. This is (as far as I know) that last book I had to read in the Revelation Space universe. I truly enjoyed Diamond Dogs and really liked Turquoise Days. Diamond Dogs is a sinister take on the "deadly maze" concept with a heavy dose of the Reynolds' hallmark extreme body modification theme. I sort of wish I had read this prior to Galactic North so I would have known more about Dr. Trintignant. Regardless... this story is compact, straight to the point and very satisfying.

Turquoise Days was a little bit of a come down after reading Diamond Dogs, however, it is a great story unto itself. I am always curious to know more about the Pattern Jugglers so I was sort of hoping to get a little more background information on them, but as is touched on in this brief story... humans don't really know a lot about the Jugglers.

I guess the only complaint I can have about this pair of novellas is that I wish they were part of a larger collection. I have a healthy appetite for anything set in this universe and hope that Reynolds will write more at a later date. I find this whole universe to be really satisfying. If you feel the same and haven't gotten to this book yet, it is worth your time. Fun, fast read for Revelation Space fans.
