The Ministry for the Future, door Kim Stanley Robinson

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2021-03-14 ScifiOne Comment

Het Ministry for the Future werd opgericht in januari 2025 als onderdeel van de VN. Het doel was om toekomstige mensen (onze kinderen, diens kinderen, enz.) een rechtspositie te geven, op basis waarvan een fatsoenlijke klimaatpolitiek kon worden afgedwongen, desnoods bij de rechter. We volgen verschillende mensen die allemaal op …

An Absolutely Remarkable Thing (The Carls #1), by Hank Green

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2021-02-28 ScifiLeave a comment

To be honest, at first I didn’t think I would like this book because it falls in that category in which everything is just like today’s world except for that one thing. Someone has a superpower, someone has a time machine, that sort of thing. It will make it hard …

Aurora, door Kim Stanley Robinson

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2020-12-22 UncategorizedLeave a comment

Dit is een van de betere generatieschipromans: een groep ruimtevaarders vertrekt in de richting van de dichtstbijzijnde bewoonbare planeet buiten ons zonnestelsel. De reis is echter zo lang dat er generaties overheen gaan voordat het schip er aankomt. Het verhaal begint bij de generatie die de eindbestemming zal bereiken. Veel …

Ender’s Game, door Orson Scott Card

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2020-12-15 UncategorizedLeave a comment

Toen ik nog een klein Vorkbaardje was, las ik al graag scifi. Ik weet nog goed dat ik op een warme zomeravond ook eens fantasy ter hand nam, om te kijken of ik dat wat zou vinden. Het was een boekje genaamd Tweesprook 2, door Orson Scott Card en Tanith …

Stone Clock (The Spin), by Andrew Bannister

Skarbo is an insect. At least in this life – in previous ones he was a human. He chose this body because it is durable, giving him enough time to complete his life’s work: building a large scale model of The Spin. Although he has never visited the articial star …

Reimagination (Singularity’s Children #4), by Toby Weston

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2020-10-23 ScifiLeave a comment

Probably the final book in the Singularity’s Children series, Reimagination is continuing part three (Conflict) more than it is delivering the promised reimagination. It is still a gripping thriller and it’s good to read how things turn out for the main characters but it’s more an extension on the existing …

Iron Gods (The Spin), by Andrew Bannister

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2020-08-30 ScifiLeave a comment

The Spin: a vast artificial star system providing the stage for political and other power games. The Hive – a portmanteau of High Value, but equally a true hive – houses a population of slaves forming the economic base of an entire society. These and other examples of what we …

Light of impossible stars (Embers of war #3) by Gareth L. Powell

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2020-08-10 ScifiLeave a comment

*Previous books’ spoiler alert* The Fleet of Knives are on the loose. Their assignment: prevent war and agression in the Multiplicity. Their method: preemtively destroy all war capable vessels. As a result commerce between planets is coming to a halt and societies are crumbling. Former warship the Trouble Dog and …

Disruption (Singularity’s Children #2), by Toby Weston

Kapitein Vorkbaard 2020-07-27 ScifiLeave a comment

Disruption is the direct continuation of Denial; we follow Stella Sagong, a young entrepreneur esacping poverty; Niato, the filthy rich idealist; Keith, corporate wage slave turned soldier; and Segi and Zaki, who escaped with their mother to the Islamic Caliphate, which stretches out from Pakistan to Morocco in this alternative …
