Extractions: (Eon, Eternity, Legacy) Eon starts out in the near future with the arrival of a large asteroid that enters Earth orbit. The authorities on Earth, and the Western Bloc in particular, immediately start exploring this asteriod, simply dubbed "the Stone", as it is obviously an artifact made by intelligent beings. The Soviet Union still exists in this novel, which made me a little annoyed at first, but it soon turned out that this little slip had a neat (possible) explanation. There are several main characters, some of whom are not very interesting or even wholesome. This novel starts out slowly, but gathers speed a few hundred pages in. The secret of "the Stone" is of truly mindboggling proportions, but as is so often the case with popular SF writers, the characters are dull and the sub-plots are absent or not well explored. I think this is a main difference between most Fantasy and SF authors. Science Fiction writers concentrate on an idea or concept, while Fantasy novels are mostly centered around a group of people and their struggles. But I digress. A bizarre and extremely advanced race of future humans is discovered in an extra-dimensional part of "the Stone", called "the Way". Some of the human explorers aboard "the Stone" flee into "the Way" as the Earth below them is consumed by nuclear fires. I found the inhabitants of "the Way" abhorrent and bizarre to the point of disturbing. I will not reveal more for fear of ruining the experience.

Crtica a esta obra de greg bear, por Ram³n Pe±a.
http://www.gigamesh.com/criticalibros/fundacionycaos.html

Extractions: Remontando el vuelo Fundación y Caos , de Greg Bear Greg Bear, el encargado de escribir este segundo volumen de la segunda trilogía de la Fundación, demuestra en las primeras diez páginas de su novela más respeto por el material original que el que mostrara Gregory Benford en la totalidad de su indigesto mamotreto previo, El temor de la Fundación . Para hacerse una idea, una de las primeras cosas que Bear deja establecidas es que la red de agujeros de gusano que entonces introdujo aquél (contradiciendo todo lo escrito por el propio Asimov), ha caído en desuso. Desgraciadamente, no todo el lastre es tan fácil de dejar atrás y por ahí siguen rondando los simulacros de Juana de Arco y Voltaire, que encajan tan bien en este universo como un Cristo con dos pistolas. Bear logra varias cosas en las que Benford fracasó (o que ni siquiera intentó). Mimetiza con relativo éxito el estilo de Asimov dividiendo el argumento en multitud de subtramas, cada capítulo en mini-secciones, y no deja de saltar entre ellas logrando que, una vez enganchado, al lector le cueste abandonar la lectura. Como Asimov, usa el diálogo como principal vehículo para hacer avanzar la trama y se reserva multitud de sorpresas y vueltas de tuerca para el final, haciendo cuando menos una lectura amena. Otro logro es que su historia encaja bastante bien con el universo previamente establecido. La acción transcurre más o menos paralela a la sección introductoria de

Extractions: The Hallway The Library The Gallery The Music Room ... The Links "Darwin's Radio", Greg Bear HarperCollins, UK paperback, 2000 (© 1999), £6.99, 439 pages. ISBN 0-00=651138-4 I sometimes think there are two Greg Bears - the dense, literary author of "Slant" versus the fairly straightforward writing of his earlier novels, for example. Or the writer of Big Dumb Object stories such as "Eon" versus the biological ideas of "Legacy". Or the cataclysmic author of "The Forge of God" versus...... Ah. Here we have the common theme. I'm not sure that everything I've read by Bear involves major changes in the human condition and/or environment - often over a short span of time - but it does seem to be a recurring theme in much of his work. Of course, it's a very common theme in SF, but it pretty much defines Bear's career, I think. What is also going on here is that Bear seems to like trying on different styles of writing and types of book. I never know what to expect next, though I usually like the results. With "Darwin's Radio", he has taken on the near-future thriller genre: With the exception of the gimmick, there is no obvious SF in this book - it is clearly set in the present day, and the technology is little different from right now, as far as I can tell. There are some lines here and there which suggest it could be set as much as ten years in the future, but that's the absolute upper limit.
