The Family Trade by Charles Stross

[openbook booknumber=”1857236262″]

The Family Trade is the first novel of a six series set about a woman, Miriam, who finds out she can travel between worlds. The other world feels like a typical fantasy world, and I almost set the book down. I haven’t been disappointed by Stross, so I kept reading. It has a bit of the “Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” feel. Stross pulls it off well.

I really enjoyed this set.

The entire novel of is an inversion of a typical Culture novel, and it’s one of my favorites.

I like everything I’ve read by Iain M. Banks. This is a Culture novel, and I rank it near the middle of his Culture stuff.
