Greg Bear - Songs of Earth 1 - Infinity Concerto. He rolled out of bed, kicking a book of Yeats' poems across the floor with one bare foot. He swore under his breath and felt for his pants.

Greg Bear - Songs of Earth 1 - Infinity Concerto. The Infinity Concerto. Songs of Earth and Power Vol. 1. Greg Bear. If a man could pass through Paradise in a dream, and have a flower presented to him as a pledge that his soul had really been there, and if he found that flower in his hand when he awoke - Ay! - and what then? - Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The only light he dared use was the Tensor lamp on his desk.

The Infinity Concerto book. This is the 18th bk I've read by Bear & I admit that I didn't particularly expect to be surprised by him but, Lo & Behold!, I was. This is not only a Fantasy bk instead of the usual Hard Science Fiction it's a k'n'tarnation excellent one!

  • One of the best stories I've ever read. If memory serves, Greg Bear wrote this while in college. As great as he is - certainly one of the best Hard SF writers of our times - his later books rarely exceed this, along with the sequel (not as good), his only attempt at fantasy. The world he creates is amazing. So are the beings who occupy it. The story is fabulous. Sadly, the title has become hard to find. If you manage to get one, hang onto it. You'll re-read it again in several years. Guaranteed.

  • Greg Bear is one of the most original speculative fiction writers out there. Oddly enough this book and it's companion "The Serpent Mage" may be one of his most traditional story lines. But he still brings all of his originality to this story and makes it all his own.

  • More fantasy than sci fi but very good. I will read the follow up book Serpent Mage. Greg. Bear is very versatile.

  • I have been a Bear fan for quite some time. This book will keep you rvited to your seat. Without giving too many details, I was pulled into the Realm and stayed there until the last page.
    Bear really knows how to paint a picture and keep you there.

  • Greg Bear has written many classic SF novels (Eon, Eternity, BloodMusic) but this fantasy novel and its sequel, The Serpent Mage, are two of his most assured and inspired works.

  • I just retread this powerful little fantasy and was swept once again into a story that is brilliant in every way. Like his main characters, Greg Bear is himself a 'world-maker."

  • The book takes a long time to get going, or so it seems. The thing is that the long almost drudgery is necessary I think to get where it needs to go. It takes a long time because it needs to. But some things could be better. The fact that something is being set up is clear but as the end approaches a great deal seem to come to light that is not as well prepared as I would like. Michael the protagonist was only 16, but his wisdom and insight into other people's character is not sufficiently developed in the story. In fact we are led to believe that he's just a kid right up until the ending when we suddenly see a far more sophisticated person. It's not quite believable to me and I can't help but wonder if the next book reveals him as something more than we have yet seen. But I will read that next book very soon because I'm pretty well hooked.

  • For anyone who likes their Celtic myths dark, cold and inhuman - this is the book for you. Fascinating read!
