A to Z Challenge 2019: B is for Barriers and Circles

You don’t need to read them in order, and as the challenge progresses, I’ll do my best to add links to related topics for each post. (more…)

In my A to Z Challenge posts I’ve already mentioned several times books recommended to me by my mom, and today I’m going about another one.
In yesterday’s A to Z Challenge post I wrote about science-fiction in space, and today’s one stays on good old Earth (how fitting on the Earth Day!), though Ian R. MacLeod’s book, “Song of Time” carries the reader into the not so far future, to the end of 21st century. 
With today’s post in A to Z Challenge we’re going into space with Kim Stanley Robinson.
