A review by jersy
Die Wiedergeburt by C.J. Cherryh, John Stewart, Michael Iwoleit
3.0
I'm not quit sure what to think of that book. It was easy and fun to read but it was lacking a real focus. It was more about a child growing up than about scifi topics, which were there from time to time but more as a background than being the real core of the story, which I thought they were supposed to be.
Since this is the second book in a series I had trouble understanding this world during the first pages since things aren't explained. However, after a while I understood everything I needed to know.
Sometimes I wondered who this book was written for. It handles adult topics and isn't written childishly, but when things like horses or sexuality are explained in the same detail to the reader as to little Ari, I feel like I am not the target demographic. But these were just a few moments.
It was very interesting whenever something nrw about the first Ari, or the way this influences the new Ari, was revealed.
I just wished this would have been focused more on the sci fi aspects and the bigger picture than on the life of a little girl. I will definitely give another book by Cherryh a try some day.
