A dragon herder embarks on a quest to bring his beloved back from the dead in this Nebula Award–winning science fiction adventure.

The surface story tells of the problems a member of an alien race, Lo Lobey, has assimilating the mythology of earth, where his kind have settled among the leftover artifacts of humanity. The deeper tale concerns, however, the way those who are “different” must deal with the dominant cultural ideology. The tale follows Lobey’s mythic quest for his lost love, Friza. In luminous and hallucinated language, it explores what new myths might emerge from the detritus of the human world as those who are “different” try to seize history and the day.

Featuring a foreword by Neil Gaiman.

“When Delany describes to us what he has seen, what he can compute, adduce, intuit or smell in the underbrush, our reaction is to sit bolt upright and cry out, “Of course, I have that very wound myself!” The ability to produce this reaction in people is one of the commonly accepted and apparently valid appurtenances of genius. . . . I look forward to the explosion reading this will create within you.” —A. J. Budrys, Galaxy Magazine

A different kind of book

Revisado en los Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 el 1 de diciembre de 2020

So well written. Beautiful. The negative reviews almost dissuaded me. In retrospect those reviewers must be very literal minded people with stunted imaginations. There really is no accounting for lack of taste. So. This is a book I could easily reread and in which I am sure I would still find something new to appreciate. I am grateful to have stumbled across Delaney. Having read voraciously for years, I was beginning to fear I had exhausted most of the quality veins in the mines of literature. But not true! My only complaint is that the book was too short. More please. Much more of works like this, and uh, thank you, Mister Delaney.

What did I just read?

Hmmm... the writing is good but the subject matter is too vague to become engrossed in it. Some non-human beings in a post-apocolyptic earth? They tell tales of their adventures with history thrown in, in the form of myth. There was no plot that evolved or that can be perceived. Great character descriptions but where this story went is ambiguous. More of an Arthurian tale without beginning or end.

Thought provoking, but not necessarily likable

Revisado en los Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 el 16 de enero de 2014

Overall I think the book feels a bit rough, like the connection of the plot points weren't fully flushed out. I don't know if I feel the ending was really earned. But I have been thinking about this book a lot since finishing it, so I suppose that is a good thing. I have to say it is thought provoking, but not necessarily likable.

There were parts of the story that I found really interesting, and I found some of the quotes preceding the chapters quite poignant. But others just felt tacked on and some (like the author's notes) threw me out of the story a bit. I think the most interesting parts of the books were when the characters were discussing relationships and genetic mutations. I wasn't as impressed with the action sequences.

I think the main themes of the book were interesting and thought provoking, but I didn't really think they were presented in a way that provided a lot of clarity. There were insights and quotes peppered through the text that I simply loved, but the overall story left me feeling unsatisfied.

Worth reading more than once

When it first came out in paperback in the 1960s this book was just an exciting science fiction book for a junior high school boy. Reading it again in my 60s it is so much more. I hope to read it again in my 80s.
