Historia
God is change. That is the central truth of the Earthseed movement, whose unlikely prophet is 18-year-old Lauren Olamina. The young woman's diary entries tell the story of her life amid a violent 21st-century hell of walled neighborhoods and drug-crazed pyromaniacs - and reveal her evolving Earthseed philosophy. Against a backdrop of horror emerges a message of hope: if we are willing to embrace divine change, we will survive to fulfill our destiny among the stars.

Historia
Little is known about the Ancient Greek oral poet Homer, the supposed 8th century BC author of the world-read Iliad and his later masterpiece, The Odyssey. These classic epics provided the basis for Greek education and culture throughout the classical age and formed the backbone of humane education through the birth of the Roman Empire and the spread of Christianity.

Historia
When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Thousands of years hence, many races inhabit a universe where a mind's potential is determined by its location in space, from superintelligent entities in the Transcend, to the limited minds of the Unthinking Depths, where only simple creatures and technology can function.

This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Resumen del Editor
The Einstein Intersection won the Nebula Award for best science fiction novel of 1967. The surface story tells of the problems a member of an alien race, Lo Lobey, has assimilating the mythology of Earth, where his kind have settled among the leftover artifacts of humanity. The deeper tale concerns, however, the way those who are "different" must deal with the dominant cultural ideology.
The tale follows Lobey's mythic quest for his lost love, Friza. In luminous and hallucinated language, it explores what new myths might emerge from the detritus of the human world as those who are "different" try to seize history and the day.

There came an elastic aftershock of creaks and groans and then, softly softly, a chinking shower of rubbled cement. Leaves calmed and trunks stood serene. Where, not a minute before, there had been a suburb, there was now only woodland standing amid ruins. There is no warning. No chance to prepare. They arrive in the night: thundering up through the ground, transforming streets and towns into shadowy forest. Buildings are destroyed.

Udo's biggest problem isn't being a digger (that's low class), or staying drunk (that's damn expensive), or avoiding the Dwergaz (they're monsters), or even pissing off the supposed Gods. It's that his reality...well, it isn't what he thought. And now, he can't even afford to drink because his so-called friend Nicz is cutting into his business, digging up tin, iron, and copper. So Udo forms a new plan: clay. After all, clay jars are used to store everything: meat, herbs, and, his personal favorite, ale.

The story of a truly galactic civilization with more than 6,000 inhabited worlds.

First published in 1984, the novel's central issues - technology, globalization, gender, sexuality, and multiculturalism - have only become more pressing with the passage of time.

Born in New York City’s Black ghetto Harlem at the start of World War II, Samuel R. Delany married White poet Marilyn Hacker right out of high school. The interracial couple moved into the city’s new bohemian quarter, the Lower East Side, in 1961. Through the decade’s opening years, new art, new sexual practices, new music, and new political awareness burgeoned. Beautifully, vividly, insightfully, Delany calls up this era of exploration and adventure as he details his development as a Black gay writer in an open marriage, with walk-ons by Bob Dylan, Stokely Carmichael, and more.

Magic and myth inhabit these chapters in figures both familiar and strange. Giant trolls and talking animals are everywhere. The winds take human form. A one-eyed old woman might seem reminiscent of the Norse god Odin. We meet sly aunts, resourceful princesses, and devious robbers. These stories, set in Norway's majestic landscape of towering mountains and dense forests, are filled with humor, mischief, and sometimes surprisingly cruel twists of fate. All are rendered in the deceptively simple narrative style perfected by Asbjørnsen and Moe.

Great story, great voice
Excellent speculative fiction read in a an expressive bass voice. The only nit I have to pick with the performance is that sometimes the narrator will shift into a character’s voice for dialogue and not shift out of it for narration, or even for another character’s dialogue.

I'm confused...
...but I did enjoy this book. I wouldn't recommend it if you want a straight forward plot. What Delany does here, instead, is gradually take the reader through a very interesting reality without stopping very often to explain anything.
At the end there aren't many clear answers.
I think I'd like to look at a print version because I have some big questions about the book that are much harder to answer with an audio version.

beautiful, but not for everyone
this book is confusing at times. it requires your complete attention, and many things are inferred rather than stated. with that said, the prose is gripping and moving. I was enthralled. I am about to read through the book a second time to see what more I can learn from it. definitely not for the faint of heart, but if you enjoy wierd scifi this is a must read

sci-fi with such great prose
it was a bit difficult to follow at first (but that may be because I'm not really used to audiobooks), but the story progressed quickly enough that my attention was grabbed! i loved following Lo Lobey on his journey of self-discovery - in that sense it is a coming-of-age and I'd recommend for teens (13+).
there is an ongoing theme of mythology in the story that pops up sometimes, that surprised me or made me laugh. the author has also cast this idea of mythology into the future, by writing my favourite character as an influencer basically. an ig gworl. they only make an appearance in the final chapters though. it was quite a ride! the scene of Lobey's first little solo battle was written almost like poetry! thank you to Stefan for reading this so well.

Maybe this needs to be read..
There seems to be a mental groove that you’ve got to be in, to understand and enjoy this story. I could never find that groove.
I don’t know if it’s background knowledge or life experience or just what but, I didn’t have it.

Confusing
The author has some great ideas that are hugely diluted, or perhaps require a significant ancient literary background to appreciate.

Very well written
It is very well written. Now will someone tell me what I just listened to? The narrative felt disjointed. Ouch my brain hurts.
