5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for Exile fans but read Exiles first, 19 Sep 1997

By A Customer

Julian May sets the scene for The Exiles Saga, describing the evolution of human minds to operancy, and the coming of Unity. It is a thought provoking book with both humour and horror, but please read The Exile Saga first (the many coloured land, the golden torc, the non-born king and the adversary).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellence in alternate reality, 25 Jan 1999

By A Customer

This is my favorite of the survallence series. Rogi is finally introduced, and is also on of the most important humans ever born (catspaw of the Lymlik). I love the way modern life is blended into the Sci-Fi epic, especially Denis's "60-minutes" interview when he shocks the world with metaphysic power.

5.0 out of 5 stars She's..... wondferful!!!, 4 Jan 1998

By A Customer

Reading this book shocked me into remembering how much I'd loved the Saga of the Exiles. This continuation is just as good, if not better. Rogi is a loveable main character, and the viewpoint is magnificent. Julian May weaves sucha full web, you are never left without something to read. THIS is how the future could have been, THIS is how it could still be.
