Science fiction meets Norse Mythology
It's official, Andri is among my favourite authors. I couldn't put this book down and I read it in one evening.
The worries and warnings of the sci-fi genre meet the poetry and transcendence of old Icelandic myths. A book that clearly has that distinct North Atlantic island's flavour, yet it doesn't ignore the existence of the rest of the world. The contrasts of a mechanised and heavily controlled society against the most primal and pure aspects of human nature.
It's an entertaining yet thoughtful story, with a refreshing writing style.
Malgré un début extrêmement prometteur qui m'a beaucoup rappelé certains romans de Barjavel, Lovestar s'enfonce malheureusement dans son propre récit et rate totalement sa fin jusqu'à en devenir incompréhensible. Vraiment dommage car j'ai trouvé le livre génial la première moitié.
