Audie Award, Science Fiction and Fantasy, 2010

Pop culture, chaos theory, and matters of the heart collide in this unique novella from the Hugo and Nebula Award - winning author of Doomsday Book.

Sandra Foster studies fads and their meanings for the HiTek corporation. Bennett O'Reilly works with monkey group behavior and chaos theory for the same company. When the two are thrust together due to a misdelivered package and a run of seemingly bad luck, they find a joint project in a flock of sheep. But a series of setbacks and disappointments arise before they are able to find answers to their questions - with the unintended help of the errant, forgetful, and careless office assistant Flip.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Connie Willis deploys the apparatus of science fiction to illuminate character and relationships, and her writing is fresh, subtle and deeply moving." ( New York Times Book Review)
"Willis's story builds slowly but is realistic and engrossing." ( Midwest Book Review)

Connie Willis is a witty and perceptive writer and Bellwether manages to be many things - biting social commentary, a thriller, a romance, a comedy - and a great story, too. Some of the characters may be (by necessity) stereotypical, but they are multi-dimensional, believable, quirky and original stereotypes. This had me laughing out loud and this is as much due to Kate Reading's wonderful narration as to Connie Willis' writing. Although I guessed the ending, it was hugely enjoyable to observe the characters antics as the story unravelled. Highly recommended.

This is my first Connie Willis book and I am now on a quest to find the rest. It's a fantastic book, interesting and fun.

to say this book is very interesting is to underestimate how interesting it is based on the assumption that you will enjoy it as much as I did for its whittiness and dry homour.

very interesting

Have only come across Connie Willis recently and love her slightly madcap humorous and breathless style. This fun book is underpinned by strong storytelling, a deep appreciation for science, and (surprisingly) a very accessible and entertaining introduction to complex systems all wrapped up in relatable characters, excellent workplace satire and…. erm… sheep.

A charming chaos
