Matthew's Journal

The last of the books in the Wayfarers universe (to call it a series seems a bit of a stretch). It still isn't the sequel to The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet I was hoping for. It's a very gentle book - if you liked that about Chambers' previous works, you'll like it, if you previously found yourself hoping for a bit more action, you'll be disappointed.

There is some plot, but largely this book is about the relationships between the various characters of different races, and how events that transpire affect their relationships with each other. It's a book about cultural differences, family, and how we relate to our own past.
