<p>So, the start of a new books thread for 2025...Martha Wells & Shauna Lawless were both superb in very different ways. I highly recommend them. Mark Hayden was on fine form with Eight Kings, too.

<p>In „The Word for World is Forest“ schreibt Le Guin über eine Gemeinschaft von Personen, die kein Konzept von Gewalt kennen, jedoch mit einem Aggressor konfrontiert sind, dessen Verständnis von hu“man“ity sogar Gewalt erfordert. Konfrontiert mit der Zerstörung ihrer Umwelt und der Missachtung von allem, was Sie sind, wehren sich die „Creechies“ und gewinnen ihre Umwelt zurück. Gewalt wird ein Teil ihrer Kultur.
