Transformation Space

I’m delighted to finally get a chance to read the judges report from the Aurealis Awards.

“The judges shortlisted the last two installments of Marianne de Pierres’ Sentients of Orion series.

In Mirror Space, Marianne de Pierres’ third volume, we are immediately thrown into the action established in the previous books without introduction. The judges felt that de Pierres wrote with a deft hand, and her skillful writing easily sweeps the reader up  into the chaos of this fast-paced, space opera.”

“Transformation Space marks the end of this ambitious space opera series. Much more than a convergence of long running plot strands, Transformation Space owes its success to economical prose, controlled manipulation of many narrative threads, and gritty characterisation. Coming through strongly, is de Pierres overriding desire to examine what it means to be human, by means of her all-toohuman dramatis-personae. Transformation Space is a gripping conclusion to an epic series filled with intimate personal drama, high concept speculation, and planet smashing action.”
