My father and I just finished The Moon and the Face by Patricia A. McKillip, sequel to Moon-Flash.
Leave to McKillip to harmoniously combine sci-fi with shamanism. To
write an anthropological book in which, for Kyreol and Terje, the
strange becomes the familiar and the familiar strange as two separate
worlds come together through dreams that stretch across the cosmos, the
innate power of the Riverworld, and love. All via journeys that are at once
utterly different and yet parallel each other. Leave it to McKillip to
answer the final and greatest question of the book with both a yes and
no. As Icrane said, everything is simple. Even when it is complex.
A fantasy author is just another name for one who has a foot within the borders of Faerie
