Wen Spencer - Tinker & Wolf Who Rules

[Thea]

I am part way through and I promise to post my take on this one.
So far it is very hard sci-fi-ish, but it is getting characters now that are interesting...

Haven't read it, but got a snippet over at the other forum.  As usual, she makes you turn your thinking on it's head.
Oh, and I just read a thread over there where they list where you can read a couple of short stories set in that world!

I got Wolf who Rules several months ago but I never got round to reading it yet- I dont think I can get Endless Blue its in hardback - I think I will wait till I can get it in paperback.

I've just finished reading Tinker and Wolf Who Rules....I loved them....does anyone know if she's got any plans to write anymore books about Tinker?  I looked on her website, but I didn't see anything about what she's working on or other future projects.  I hope she is.

[Patti L.]

The information on it varies.  What I've heard is that there are a couple of short stories, (see above) but for a couple of reasons she's not planning on going back any time soon.

I've finally read A Brother's Price. As much as I love Spencer, I'm feeling ambivalent towards this book. I may have to keep it around and read it again .... I liked how she upended the gender roles, yet I didn't like that they were so oppressive to begin with. Plus, I thought the romance was too quick. They fell in love waaay too quickly.

Wen has definitely done better than The Brother's Price  But that still leaves room for a darn good book.  It is definitely weak in the relationship building between the rommance subjects and there are aspects of the that I plain don't like.  But it is good speculative fiction.

Exactly - you said it much better! Thanks

My 2 cents.

Ok..I love Ukiah Oregon, Tinker and Wolf Who Rules! Who wouldn't want their own Windwolf? And Tinker is just amazing. It might have just been me, but I didn't care for Endless Blue.  I just couldn't get motivated about the characters, so it might have just been me.

[Patti L.]

Nah, it's whatever floats your boat. Some books by an author grab you, while others by the same person leave you flat.  Asimov mysteries? yes!  Foundation series?  no.  Like that.

I keep checking her web site but have not seen anything.

I liked Endless Blue myself.  The Misha is going to develop into a cool character, as is Eraphie, I think.  I love the gods and their take on mysticism and faith.  With fiction, we use lies to tell  Truths.

You should use that as a sig line, Jackie!

I do say that a lot don't I? :

i absolutely loved tinker and wolf who rules and wish there were more of the books in the works.  i also really liked the ukiah oregon series and wish there were more of those too.     i want ukiah's brother to meet his moms and his son as well as his partner.  i think it would be very interesting and entertaining to read
