Comprised of one novella and four short stories, The Gold at the Starbow's End is a somewhat fascinating collection. The title tale regards a group of astronauts on a very long journey to Alpha Centuari and what they do to occupy the time they spend getting there. They have been sent by a very forward-thinking man who may not really have their best interests at heart. This story was hilarious in regards to the kind of antics the astronauts got up to, and the reaction their handler has to their reports are absolutely priceless in more ways than one. "Sad Solarian Screenwriter Sam" is one of those stories where extra-terrestrials decide to destroy the human race because we suck. Sam is their one and only test subject. He sucks. Quite a bit of this story is cribbed from Burroughs Martian saga. I was not amused. "Call Me Million" is a 'what-if' kind of story that is uniquely written, but never really goes anywhere. Charley is a soul sucker. He eats people's souls and they die. There are no people left to eat except other people eaters. What now? There. You've read the story. Skip it. After reading "Shaffery Among the Immortals" I was hoping that the final story would also feature a complete sad sack so I could say I didn't really like or identify with any of the main characters in these stories. Shaffery is a pathetic loser even compared to Sam and Charley. However, the story was worth reading for the ending. Very fitting. Probably the best story in the book was "The Merchants of Venus." Pohl did a very good job of world-building in regards to the planet, it's atmosphere, it's previous denizens, etc. without bogging the reader down with exposition. I did not disdain the main character. I was rooting for Audee to find what he was looking for. The fact that he was destined to do so was obvious from the first, but the struggle and journey were quite enjoyable to read about. Final take: Skip stories two and three and you have a 4 star book.

Posted At: Riverina Romantics My Rating: 5 out of 5 * Romance Rating: 4 out of 5 <3 No! -cries- It’s over! It’s the end of the world! Okay, maybe not, but it sure feels like a part of me has died. I have been with this series since the very beginning, and I have enjoyed every step of the journey. To have it end is bittersweet. I finally got the story I’ve been waiting for since book 1, but I come to the end of an incredible series. This book had a lot to live up to, and I’m so happy it didn’t disappoint. I’ve heard many people found Quinn annoying. Personally, I thought she was a perfect fit. Having been a rebel leader for so long, she’s lived a very lonely and terrifying life. But things are about to change. Much faster than she’d like. I really liked how strong yet vulnerable Quinn was. It showed that she was a human woman with normal feelings. For so long she’s has to be this tough leader, someone others can count on. She never had a chance to lean on someone else. With Alaric, she gets that chance. She gets the opportunity to not only let down her guard, but be a woman. Even though life as she knows it is quickly being ripped to absolute shreds, and despite her best efforts to do what is right, it comes down to one thing: love. She realizes that she can still be a prominent aid in the war, but she can still be the woman she is inside. Instead of keeping the real her locked up, she can finally—after so long—be herself. Dear sweet Poseidon! Alaric was just drool-worthy from the beginning. Finally having had enough with everything—his position, his duties, his loneliness, even his god—he’s decided he’s not going to take it anymore. There’s only one thing in his life that matters: Quinn. And he’ll do anything to protect her. But, like in all good finales, things go wrong very quickly. I was hooked by Alaric’s transformation through this book. Starting off determined to say ‘screw you’ (putting it nicely) to everything and everyone, to realizing that he has one more very important duty, was very deep and heartfelt. I felt his journey through the roughest part of his life was not only perfectly done, but he handled it in a way that was true to himself. With the help of his fellow warriors, and one stubborn rebel leader, he became the thing of legends. He completely embraced who he was deep inside, accepted that he had been where he belonged all along, and found love when he thought he’d never have it. It was absolutely beautiful and torturous and 100% perfect. And let me just say, that ending? I couldn’t put the book down until I finished it. Just when you thought it was over, something else reared its ugly disastrous head. And then something else. And then something else. It was pure torture, but pure bliss at the same time. That ending was everything I could have wanted in a final book. I was in no way disappointed. It left me satisfied, but sad. Sad because such a phenomenal series has come to an end. My warriors will always have a place in my heart.
