Today I will be reviewing my most recently finished book, House of Suns, a 2008 space opera novel by Alastair Reynolds. This book is an incredible tale spanning millions of years and countless planets. The story follows two shatterlings, Campion and Purslane, who despite the rules of their Line are in love. After a catastrophic event forces the remaining shatterlings into hiding, they must work together and put aside their differences to solve the mystery of who would want a whole Line gone? The book is fascinating with unique technologies such as time dilation, odd spacecraft, stardams, virtual worlds, and much more. with a thrilling story that will leave you hooked through and through with various twists and turns. Overall if you are a fan of sci-fi and are looking for a good novel, give House Of Suns a go!
