Touching on concepts of evolutionary mental development the "Eth" has the ability to wish realities into being using the power within a galactic "psynergy" Sumner Kagan is an excellent anti hero, the book introduces many genuinely new and original concepts and creatures against a backdrop of a post apocalyptic Earth 5,000 or so years hence.
I have read and re read this book many times and get something new out of it each time. One of my favourite books, very underrated, try it you wont be disappointed

Radix is unlike any other book I have ever read. The details that is expressed within is fantastic. The characters are extremely detailed. As for the story line it is very unqiue, telling the story of Sumner who starts off as a typical kid who hates the world, to one who learns to come at peace with himself, after a number of amazing trials. A book I would recommend to anyone who likes Sci Fi or Fantasy.

Radix for Me describes in the greatest detail the driving forces of a young man. The urge to push the limits and to become something great. This book takes you through an unrecognizable version of this world, on a journey with a man who is dicovering the true powers of the body and mind at every turn. You cannot help but become involved in the changes and experiences Sumner Kagan chances on. One of the most vivid and expansive books I have ever read.

Couldn't Get Through it.
I read about 90 pages of the book (I have a different edition to the one displayed here with a total of 384 pages) and that was fine. Beyond that I just couldn't continue. Read more
