The premise behind the Helliconia trilogy is interesting and original, but there is very little plot to any of the three books. Aldiss includes detailed notes about the celestial mechanics and the biology of Helliconia, but I wish he would have devoted some of that energy to adding some concrete plot. I found this last book in the trilogy to be the hardest to finish, though it was a great sleep aid.
A crowning end to this fantastic story on the remote planet. Wonderful intertwined with the backstory of earth itself.
Absolutely fantastic trilogy.
Highly recommended.
