Finished IN THE TIME OF GREEN BLIMPS

18346212

Another wonderfully inventive novel in the Star Saga by Henry Melton.  100 years after all technology on Earth was destroyed, new technologies are are being developed.  Some are new life forms bred specifically to serve humans--the blimps don't travel fast, but they are one of very few delivery services available and these do fly.  Are they dangerous?  The jury is out.
I love all the books I have read by Henry Melton and they just keep getting better.

I am now nearly finished with The Women in the Castle by Jessica Shattuck.  Set just after WWII in West Germany, three women manage to come together to survive and rebuild what they can.  We learn about the war experiences of each  in retrospect and see the direct influence those experiences had on them and their children.

No, I don't seem to have had my fill of hollocaust stories, though I could never read them in succession.

The delay and reporting has been caused by our returning to Florida and have only just gotten the computer set up.
