5.0 out of 5 stars
A powerful and evocative novel., 2 Mar 1998
By J. Michael Robertson "gREy_eLf" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Furies (Mass Market Paperback)
The Furies is a book that makes you think. I found it captivating and couldn' t put it down once I started it. Alldera is a heroin complete with self-doubt and other human failings. Her relationships with Sheel, Eykar Bek and her own people, the Free Fems make for great action and emotion. A totally believable character. I found the Riding Women of the grasslands facinating.

Great book, 29 Aug 2002
By Paula - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Furies (Mass Market Paperback)
Hard to believe anyone could find anything in it boring enough to skip through. I tore through it in a day. The characters are especially well drawn and distinct. I don't know how Charnas does it.The themes aren't wishy-washy and wimpy. Don't you want to yell at the book sometimes? Or at least what the people do and think? Yes. That's good.
Some have found the sequel, "The Conqueror's Child" to be better, or "Motherlines" before it, but this one is in my opinion the the best, most brutal one of the bunch. It's fast and action-packed, one of those great showdowns, vindications, coups de grace, whatever.
Sorry this is a patchy review, I tried!

3.0 out of 5 stars
a decent conclusion, but not fulfilling, 13 Sep 1995
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Furies (Hardcover)
I received this in hardback as a gift and I'm glad I didn't
spend the money on it. Paperback, I would have bought.
The characters seem less developed and the conclusions a
little too convenient for my tastes.
