Books by Sheri S. Tepper

Book

The Waters Rising (2010)

This book's great potential floundered hard, if you'll pardon the pun. This speculative-fiction blend of fantasy and science ultimately failed on every front, despite getting off to a strong start. Tepper often starts well, with strong characters, interesting plots, and really delicious world b...

Book

The Awakeners: Northshore & Southshore (1994)

I really thought that I had not read this before, so I was quite surprised as the story unfolded how much came back to me. In some ways this is because this is a classic Tepper and so many of the familiar themes are there for those who know her work. In others it is simply why I enjoy rereading b...

Book

Grass (2002)

Tepper is new to me. Not only new, but before I read Grass, I had not even heard of Tepper. I had no preconceptions, I had no idea of the plot - completely fresh.The result completely blew me. Grass sets up a complex society involving a main religion, a controlling empire, and a rogue planet d...

Marianne, the Magus, and the Manticore (1988)

Were the Angel of the Lord to appear and say to me: ‘The wrath of the Lord waxes great against the works of American fantasy authors of the second half of the 20th century, and before a night has passed and a day it is His will that they be destroyed utterly, and expunged from the memory of Manki...

Book

The Gate to Women's Country (1999)

One thing I hate about many books is that they often starts off with flying colors with amazing prose and plotting, making me think it's going to be my new favorite book. And then they usually glided, or stumbled, down into disappointments by the end of the story, when the author clearly ran out ...

Book

Raising the Stones (2002)

Sheri S. Tepper's "Raising the Stones" is sometimes billed as the second part of her "Arbai" trilogy, but that's a misnomer, as this book easily stands on its own. It shares the same universe as its predecessor, "Grass," but is otherwise set one thousand years later and with very few exceptions h...

The Family Tree (1998)

I am an incredibly picky reader, though, so making the list in the first place is, shall we say, difficult. (And climbing Mt. Everest is just a wal...

The Fresco (2015)

‘The bizarre events that have been occurring across the United States seem to have no bearing on Benita Alvarez-Shipton’s life. that is, until she is approached by a pair of aliens asking her to transmit their message of peace to the Powers That Be in Washington.Her obligation does not end once t...

Book

Gibbon's Decline and Fall (1997)

There's something to be said for reaching for a hammer when perhaps a more delicate instrument might do the job nicely.I never read anything by Sheri Tepper before and as a woman writing SF I didn't want to automatically paint her with the "feminist" brush and assume that because she's a woman ev...

Book

The True Game: Kings Blood Four/Necromancer Nine/Wizard's Eleven (1996)

First off, this review is somewhat less than objective as this book holds a great deal of nostalgia value for me. I first read this book almost 25 years ago, shortly after reading the Chronicles of Mavin Manyshaped - which is actually a prequel and written later, and at the time it opened me up t...

Book

The Margarets (2007)

Overall is was an enjoyable book. It's a bit inventive, I like the break the author takes from the standard militarism angle. It was refreshing to read a story featuring interplanetary clashing that side-stepped guns and conventional war.I like the versions of a person splitting off... and the ov...

Book

Six Moon Dance (1999)

There's probably a case to be made that Tepper could get herself a nice career creating fictional worlds for other writers. I've only read three books by her and two of those showcase someone with a more than decent imagination giving her characters rich worlds to romp around in, with some though...

Book

Beauty (2009)

This book surprised me in a lot of ways. I was expecting a feminist-inflected retelling of "Sleeping Beauty," and while Beauty started out in that vein, it didn't stay there long.Briefly, the story is about the title character --- a half-fairy daughter of a duke in fourteenth-century England --- ...
