Reviews
The vibrant lines drawn between lives prove as compelling as laser battles and widescreen explosions. If you yearn for science fiction with heart, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better candidate this stellar novel., As good, smart and satisfying as its predecessor...If there was such a thing as a Cosy Space Opera subgenre of Speculative Fiction, Becky Chambers' series would likely be listed alongside the equally excellent On a Red Station, Drifting by Aliette de Bodard and Binti by Nnedi Okorafor., "As with her amazing debut, the power of Chamber's second space opera is in her appealing characters [...] Her protagonists might not all be human, but they possess more humanity than most" -- Library Journal (starred review) "Chambers uses her considerable talent to take a more focused and contained look at a gut-wrenching story of self-determination and personal autonomy [...] No matter what beautiful and strange world Chambers takes us to, we can count on her to lead with humor and heart." -- RT Book Reviews (4 1/2 stars) "Warm, engaging, properly science-fictional, A Closed and Common Orbit is a very likable novel indeed." -- The Guardian "A Closed and Common Orbit may be smaller in scope than the book before it, but in its focus and its force, in the sheer delight it takes in the discoveries it documents, it's as fine and as fantastical and as fun as Chambers' absolute darling of a debut." -- Tor.com "As good, smart and satisfying as its predecessor...If there was such a thing as a Cosy Space Opera subgenre of Speculative Fiction, Becky Chambers' series would likely be listed alongside the equally excellent On a Red Station, Drifting by Aliette de Bodard and Binti by Nnedi Okorafor." -- Book Smugglers "While most sequels feel the need to go bigger and bolder, Orbit is a more intimate story than its predecessor, exploring trust, the mind/brain paradox, and unease with one's body, while examining the ways someone without a family makes their way in the world and forms their own connections." -- AV Club "The vibrant lines drawn between lives prove as compelling as laser battles and widescreen explosions. If you yearn for science fiction with heart, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better candidate this stellar novel." -- B&N Sci-Fi and Fantasy Blog "Chambers Wayfarers series is the feel-good science fiction series you were looking for. Depressing dystopias got you down? Here's the antidote [...] This is optimistic science fiction for those who grew up on Original Series Star Trek." -- Pop Verse "For any of us, life as we think we know it can change at any time. A Closed and Common Orbit simply reminds us that, in a universe of immense and wondrous possibilities, there's no shame in finding oneself a novice here anew." -- Strange Horizons "Humane and alien, adventurous and thoughtful, vast in its imagination and wonderfully personal in the characters it builds. But above all else, it is joyously written and a joy to read." -- Claire North, author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August "Great fun!" -- Ann Leckie, author of Ancillary Justice "Becky Chambers' debut novel . . . is probably the most fun that you'll have with a space opera novel this year. It's exciting, adventurous, and the cozy sort of space opera that seems to be in short supply lately. . . . Not to be missed." -- iO9 "Becky Chambers' debut is a joyous, optimistic space opera ... Although it isn't shy about tackling Big Questions, Planet is a heart-warming debut novel that will restore your faith in science fiction (specifically) and humanity (in general)." -- Tor.com "A warm, big-hearted, progressive and fun blast of sci-fi. . . . The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet is just so much fun to read, and we can't wait to see what Chambers does next. 5 stars." -- SciFiNow "A quietly profound, humane tour de force that tackles politics and gender issues with refreshing optimism." -- The Guardian "One of the most enjoyable, brilliantly realized spacey SF novels I've read in ages." -- James Smythe, author of The Echo and The Explorer, Humane and alien, adventurous and thoughtful, vast in its imagination and wonderfully personal in the characters it builds.

  • Superb, creative, with the feel of classic futuristic sci-fi space opera

    Intelligent, creative, well-written. Feels realistic and carries a positive undercurrent of the strength of individuals and their humanity. Wonder diversity and in-depth creative writing of multiple human and non-human sentients. Becky Chambers novels are always enjoyable reading. Only wish there were more of them :-)
