![]() ![]() In a world, or universe, defined by violence and a fear of the unknown, it is up to us as individuals to question the accepted status quo in order to conquer hate and discover love. ![]() We fight for what we think is right, but doesn't the other side fight for the same thing? Howey's characters find that fighting for peace is equivalent to lying to an empath.īeacon 23 caught me off guard in many ways, but none more so than the profound realizations the main character comes to. Clarke, H.P Lovecraft, and Isaac Asimov, Howey tells a story of a warring, futuristic society which (minus the alien races) is not too far off from the world we live in today. ![]() Much like the visionary works of sci-fi masters such as Arthur C. When I first began reading, I was reminded of The Martian but as I read on, I discovered that Beacon 23 is so much more than a sometimes humorous story of a man alone in space.īeacon 23 really speaks to the politics of our world today. In such a short work, Howey has really given readers a complete science fiction masterpiece. I chose to pick up this book based on the fact that I highly enjoyed Wool Omnibus, and wanted to read another work by Howey. ![]()
