It offered science fiction in the classic style, with nobility and military veterans tackling adventures alongside ne'er-do-wells and outcasts. It offered a future brim-full of possibility, full of invention, inspired by the likes of Poul Anderson and Harry Harrison.The opening of Bonnie Milani's Home World propelled me back to those days of playing Traveller. It oozed class and style, showing a world where technology transforms the everyday experience of the future citizens of Earth.Class systems remain intact in this future - with the central character of Jezekiah being the future heir of the title of Protector of Home World. Earth itself has transformed in many ways, though, to the point where natural humans are the stuff of legend, most people being sorted into different Types from a scattering of cultures.If the setting tips its hat towards the likes of Anderson, the plot is far more Machiavellian. Jezekiah is caught in the middle of a series of political shell games, as he tries to secure a treaty that will bring peace and stability to Home World. The heart of this deal is a marriage contract between his sister, the whining, selfish Letticia, whose days are spent burrowing into the cyber world of the Sync, and the human hybrid Strongarm, an honourable, lion-like Lupan warrior who, once bonded, bonds for life.Woven into the tale are other characters - most notably Keiko, the would-be Samurai with an ancestry that binds her to the underworld of Earth, with whom Jezekiah finds himself falling in love.The action that surrounds the politics can be brutal - this is a tale for adults, with strong language and horrifying actions on the parts of some of the protagonists. Those who find Game of Thrones too much at times should note that similar ground is trodden here. Also, while noting things that may put people off, there are one or two small editing errors to be found, the occasional an instead of a, for example - but really very minor problems only worth mentioning for the most stringent of eyes.In the midst of all of this, there's some very clever writing going on. In particular, I was taken with the attention to language. The future world has assimilated all manner of dialects, and a pidgin English is spoken at times between those of separate cultures. This can make for awkward reading at times - but in a good way, because while you puzzle out what this form of broken speech or that idiolect involves, you are immersing yourself in this future landscape, the imperfections crystallising the world around you.Beyond that, Milani also pays attention to non-verbal communication, with various characters having different means of observing the world around them. Keiko has her battle sense that alerts her to threats in her vicinity, Letticia is immersed in the Netmind of Sync with access to the myriad of options that cyberpunk-influenced world provides, the splendidly-named bodyguard Rudyard Kipling Marsden - Kip for short - is able to observe the moods of others around him through his heightened technology, while Jezekiah himself is often noted to be attuning the mood that he broadcasts as being different from that he feels inside. Meanwhile, the feral ancestry of Strongarm equips him with the ability to sniff out what others are feeling. Communication is key in this future world - more crucially, limiting your communication to avoid broadcasting one's real intentions is a matter of life and death in the world of political games that mark out the life - and possible death - of Home World.It's a cracking read - and while I might not be totally convinced by the authenticity of some of the romantic connections in the book, that's fully believable in a world where politics, including marriage for advancement, are par for the course.And by the end I'll be darned if I'm not wanting to pick up some dice and venture back to my years of playing Traveller - and the dreams it sparked of a universe of infinite possibility.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.A brilliant readBy D.R.I don't read science fiction very often. I'm a huge Ursula LeGuin fan, and I search for books that can draw me in the way that she does. It's rare that I ever find one. Well, I have finally found one. In this case I was astounded by how much I loved this book. From what i have gathered , Bonnie Milani is a new author, and what a knockout novel this is. It's a challenging read, not easy, but I could not put it down . It took me forever to get anything done while I was reading this. Home world was my constant companion for weeks. The author somehow manages to make the story and the characters familiar in their hopes and dreams and in the way that they love and seek success. The relationships are real, never farfetched. The world that they live in is familiar in both landscape and reminiscences of our life on earth now. It's a wonderful story of political and personal struggles that ring true. Don't be put off if it takes a while to grasp the story line or to keep track of who the characters are and which side they are on . Keep reading and you will find yourself unable to leave the story for very long. It is an adventure through a world that I miss already now that I have finished the book. I can't wait for the next one.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.Great, great, great book!By Paul HubbardI have just finished reading this fabulous book and I am still glowing from the experience. I have read - rather, tried to read - a number if sci-fi books recently and given up on most. I mean some real classics. My problem with most was that they tend to tell and tell and tell, jabbering at the reader about all the myriad details of their made up world. Ugh. How to bore a contemporary reader. But Home World - NO WAY! The style and the technique are first rate. Ms. Milani is a writer who understands the age old maxim "show, don't tell," in a very deep way. Oh what a breath of fresh air!Readers of Home World are brought into its details in a natural, organic way, not via a boring data dump. The author is a genius at naming things and people and places in a way that both titillates and demonstrates at the same time. Among her many inventions are the wonderful "needler," a kind of miniature gun, "NetMind," an out-of-body Internet, and the brilliantly named "Venus Seed," a latter-day Ecstacy-type drug.Like the sci-fi world in which they live, Home World's characters are never introduced with the typical dull narrative bio, but shown to us through their words and actions. As a result, they are not the cardboard cut-outs that litter bad sci-fi novels, but real people with real motivations, depth, and complexity. There are no stereotyped "good" and "evil" characters here - wonderful villains and wonderful heroes, yes! but real and believable.But among all the wonderful features of Home World, the real joy is its plot. Because we believe in and care about the characters and their world, the actions they take reverberate emotionally with each step toward the climax. Each character has his or her own stakes, each is at odds with the other, and the dynamics between them move the reader non-stop to the end. In a word, it's a page-turner.Honestly, I can't recommend this book enough. Try it. You won't be sorry!See all 51 customer reviews...
