“Revelation Space” is Reynolds’ first book, a hard science-fiction space opera somewhat similar to Vernor Vinge’s novels. I am not going to spoil it, so if you like Vinge’s work, read it. In my opinion it is not quite as good, but definitely very gripping and worth the read.
I hope this goes through, I am in awe of the three books I have read. I must breifly note something that has plauged me in recent weeks. The Watcher of the Skies, by Genisus has haunted my reading of the last novel Redemtion Ark. A song performed in the late 70’s by this English group. I wonder if this sparked the Novel?
