In the one I've read so far, yes it does. It's written from the pov of a professor from a previous time though so actually gives it a feel of authenticity. Probably not intended tbf but I could imagine someone from that time believing in the superiority of his race. Others by him are meant to be worse from what I've heard mind. I've only read one story so far.
Always think of this book when watching the Lord of the rings films. Its a good read.
the author is clearly having a lot of fun, introducing the Alien made me laugh out loud. I mean why not? Aliens is a great marines in trouble And monster film, throw it in there.
Decent read. I think all three won the Hugo.
This is the first in the Broken Earth trilogy. Fantasy has to be pretty engaging/unusual to grab me these days and this one manages it. Its really well written with an intriguing world. Got a 2016 Hugo in the best novel category. A deserved win by the looks, the writing is commanding
Hmmm.... and in my local library. I like a bit of intelligent fantasy writing me.
I got the 5th Season out of the library, after your discussion on here. It's on my pile.
Entirely random thought: it's interesting reading someone with a long running series based around one character trying to do the same with another leading cop or whatever. In the one I'm reading you can see him establishing what will no doubt be a tense but productive relationship between the old established cop and the new high flying degree educated rookie (just about the biggest cliché in there is in crime thrillers). I'm a very undemanding reader of fiction, I like to forget the author and just get absorbed in the story. But reading an author developing a new set of characters, really brings the author and their toolkit back into view.
