Neverness By David Zindell
NEVERNESS by david zindell. Voyager/Harper Collins, 1994. ISBN 0586-20536-5 Science fiction gives the wrong idea about a book like this.
http://www1.dragonet.es/users/markbcki/zindell.htm

Extractions: The ideas are fun and surprising and it is rather like seeing the excellent but dry book by Michio Kaku ,"Visions" (a summary of leading research) suddenly coming to life. As in all good epics there is a hero, Mallory Ringess, illegitimate, in trouble with his uncle, and headstrong enough to be forced into a probably fatal journey of discovery. The galaxy is a manifold in which he and his ship move by mapping (top) from one point to the next. Some mappings are well known but he reaches the limits of knowledge beyond which all pilots have been lost. He gets involved in stealing D.N.A. ("sleling" - a capital offence) from the Alaloi, a people who have returned to Neanderthal bodies and lives, and is himself finally reconstructed on the beautiful blue water planet of Agathange, by a race of master D.N.A. formers who have chosen to live as dolphins, otters and whales.

Extractions: WELCOME JUMP EXPLORE THE POINT ... HOME WAR IN HEAVEN BY DAVID ZINDELL (Review by Nick Gevers, Ph.D., Cape Town, South Africa) With War in Heaven (1998), David Zindell has concluded one of the most extraordinary narratives in SF history. What makes the Neverness Quartet (as one might dub War in Heaven Neverness (1988) initiated a future history of intense complexity: thousands of years from now, the mystical Academy in the city Neverness supplies starship pilots and ingenious savants to a galaxy populous with humanity; the narrator, Mallory Ringess, is a great pilot whose quest for the secret of godhood leads him among cosmic deities and serene primitives. Neverness The Broken God The Wild (1995), and War in Heaven In his The Book of the New Sun (1980-3), Wolfe succeeded in many purposes; among other things, he told a quest tale that summed up all previous SF and BANTAM SPECTRA (USA). 1998.

David Zindell : THE WILD
david zindell The Wild. (NEL p/back, 1989). The Wild is the sequel to zindell'sThe Broken God, and the second part of his Requiem for Homo Sapiens series.
http://www.rastus.force9.co.uk/FHBR86.html

Extractions: The Wild is the sequel to Zindell's The Broken God , and the second part of his "Requiem for Homo Sapiens" series. It follows on directly from TBG , with that book's hero, Danlo Ringess leaving Neverness with an exploratory force to venture into the Vild, the region of densely packed stars where the Architects of the Universal Cybernetic Church are creating their own Apocalypse amidst exploding novas. The force's objective is to find ways to prevent the Architects from destroying the local galaxy with their mad schemes, and in this, Danlo becomes a key player, venturing farther into the Vild to find the legendary planet of Tannahill, origin of the Architects. Along the way, Danlo encounters humans who have made themselves into cybernetic gods, heretic Architects who are making a very different kind of virtual reality for themselves, and forces between the stars of huge complexity that require Danlo's utmost talents to navigate safely. Zindell's story here is every bit as complex and detailed as The Broken God , and he doesn't shirk from looking deeply at the problems he raises in the course of Danlo's quest. Indeed, it is that very depth of perception that raise Zindell's work from being mere 'space opera' to a higher level. There are times, of course, where the reader can weary of the detailing, and wish he'd get on with the plot a bit quicker, but those moments are few and far between.

http://math.cofc.edu/faculty/kasman/MATHFICT/mf66.html

Extractions: Author: David Zindell "[In this book], the Order of Pilots tries to tackle the Continuum Hypothesis. It's a long, strange, complex story, but it seems pretty certain that the author had some mathematical training. He tries to describe a situation where the act of constructing a mathematical proof has a physical effect on one's surrounding (e.g., making a Ship go). There are lots of mathematical jargon, used convincingly." (Contributed by Iwan Praton, Franklin and Marshall.) "I'm not a mathematician, so I can't vouch for the autheticity of the maths in this work, but there is a lot of it and it is key to the storyline. The `pilots' essentially use maths to navigate through a form of hyperspace. As for literary quality, as a former judge of the Arthur C. Clarke Award I'd offer my opinion that this is one of the most engrossing and intriguing SF novels I've read. Though the follow-up, The Broken God , is even better." (Contributed by Gary Dalkin)

WAR IN HEAVEN, By David Zindell
WAR IN HEAVEN, by david zindell HarperCollins Voyager, 1999, £6.99,791pp ISBN 0586-21191-8 I'm suffering from that perennial
http://www.swindongig.co.uk/stupc/Reviews/War in heaven.html

Extractions: ISBN 0-586-21191-8 I'm suffering from that perennial ailment of reviewing whereby you inevitably end up having to read only the final part of any trilogy. Although a big old-fashioned infodump would have been nice at times, I was fortunate this time that if you're prepared to live with a few holes in your understanding of events and background then there's nothing to really spoil your enjoyment (just like reality!). Book Three of A Requiem for Homo Sapiens , which itself follows Zindell's first novel, Neverness War in Heaven is able to stand by itself. Although it didn't make me necessarily want to snap up Books One and Two, I'm certainly intending to read Neverness The story is huge and complicated: suffice to say that Danlo wi Soli Ringess is returning as an ambassador to the world he grew up on and left behind, hoping to stop a cataclysmic war between a new religion (called "Ringism" and based upon the teachings of his father, a now absent god) and an ancient secular academy. This is all counter-pointed by vague warnings of a war between supremely advanced galactic entities, generally recognised as gods, of whom we frustratingly hear nothing but interstellar gossip. Most of the book's events in fact take place on a surprisingly low-tech level, given the wonders Zindell sometimes off-handedly refers to, but he's concerned with examining the gap between technological and primitive Man. It's a small gap, apparently, with the wonders of technology nothing but window dressing to our fundamental nature.
The Fire Sermons: David Zindell's A Requiem For Homo Sapiens Trilogy
The Fire Sermons david zindell's A Requiem for Homo Sapiens Trilogy.by Nick Gevers. In his vast (and vastly ambitious) A Requiem
http://www.io.com/~lawrence/fireser.html

Extractions: In his vast (and vastly ambitious) A Requiem For Homo Sapiens Trilogy , David Zindell joins many other contemporary American SF writers in rejecting the virtual and reasserting the natural. This themeperhaps a renewed humanist reaction against cyberpunkseems again and again to find expression in immensely long, many-stranded epics: in his Mars Trilogy, Kim Stanley Robinson proclaims his preference for physical frontiers over cybernetic ones; in the Hyperion Cantos , Dan Simmons rejects artificial intelligence and artificial immortality; in The Book of the Long Sun , Gene Wolfe declares that there is only one God, that digitized deities are merely demiurges. Zindell adds to this chorus a powerful, sustained, visionary voice, demonstrating over three long novels his thesis that we can only truly evolve in and through harmony with the basic cycles of Nature, only truly progress by embracing Reality to the exclusion of any virtual alternative. Unfortunately, even while this argument shapes and impassions Zindell's Trilogy, it generates, in its fervor, disruptive textual blemishes. A Requiem For Homo Sapiens can only be described as a flawed masterpiece. It is, one might say, a set of sermons, similar to the inspirational but corrupt "Fire Sermon" Hanuman li Tosh delivers in the first volume. The trilogy is inspired, passionate and compassionate, full of cosmic poetry and challenging intellectual gambits; in these respects it is a very persuasive narrative. But it has the defects of a sermon also: a general rigidity, excessive length, verbose flowery language, unproved assumptions, an unwillingness to consider the other side of an argument. Zindell's convictions are eloquently imparted, but too insistent. His work is both extraordinarily good and extraordinarily frustrating; these two aspects should be considered in turn, allowing an appraisal more balanced than the books themselves.

Elle se nomme inexistence. Et ainsi, le 95è jour du faux hiver de l'année 2929, moi, Mallory Ringess, aspirant pilote, je fis le serment de rechercher la vérité, même si cela devait me conduire à la mort et anéantir tout ce que j'aimais et chérissais.
