A Plague of Angels has been one of her most frequent recommendations, so when the chance came I of course weighed straight in. Whether I myself would recommend it quite as stringently despite many exceptional qualities might be another matter. One of the most exceptional things about A Plague of Angels, and indeed a key fact about the story; is its setting. Where in some authors pacing problems are due to possible inequities in the writing, with Tepper it seemed that at least some of the points where the book dragged are because A Plague of Angels is rather unapologetically pedagogical, . Tepper very much has points to make and she makes them perhaps too emphatically.
Sheri Tepper writes often complex novels dealing with complex issues. A Plague of Angels is no exception. Science fiction book that takes a while to get into and understand about the world after a nuclear attack. Both hard-headed and also slipping toward fantasy at times, the story is set in the far future. Пользовательский отзыв - ouroborosangel - LibraryThing. The suprise ending makes it worth the read.
