![]() ![]() ![]() The only other book that comes close to that I have read is Two Years Before the Mast by Richard Henry Dana – which I very highly recommend – particularly if you are a Southern Californian. The book describes in excruciating detail the difficulties seamen encountered trying to round Cape Horn. I also enjoyed the journey of the missionaries from England in the early part of the nineteenth century, by brig, round Cape Horn and eventually to Hawaii. We find out what might have motivated those early islanders to make a trip by canoe, thousands of miles to the north, to eventually find and settle Hawaii. ![]() We learn what their lives were like, driven by superstition, and brutal beyond belief, particularly in their paradise-like environment. The next section describes in detail the lives of the islanders in Bora Bora and the surrounding islands in the South Pacific thousands of years ago. That chapter of the book is priceless and I still think about it every time I visit the Islands. The book brings to life how the islands were formed and how its flora and fauna became established. I enjoyed the introductory chapter of the formation of the Hawaiian Islands millions of years ago. So this year, on another trip to Hawaii, I decided to read the book a second time. It’s a long book and I didn’t finish it during the one-week trip, but brought it home with me and worked through it. I first read this book in 1993 during my first ever trip to Hawaii. ![]() ![]() Nic Pizzolatto's highly acclaimed, Edgar Award-nominated thriller announces the arrival of a major new talent for fans of Dennis Lehane, James Lee Burke and Breaking Bad. ![]() He takes her with him on the run from New Orleans to Galveston, Texas, permanently entwining their fate along a highway of seedy bars and fleabag hotels, a world of treacherous drifters, pick-up trucks, and ashed-out hopes, with death just a car-length behind.

She was, in every sense, a genius, and her books show it, and they show it in a way that does not make itself apparent in her prose but in the meaning of her words. There is a reason she is still a towering presence in the SF community, and it's not just that she's the one black female author most SF fans can name. I am sure she had many, many more books in her, and the world was robbed of her talent. And in the final apocalyptic battle, her survival will depend on whether all humans are bigots-or all bigots are human. ![]() Genetically modified to be able to walk in daylight, Shori now becomes the target of a vast plot to destroy her and her kind.
