Hothouse Book Review
” Hothouse ” is a good book that you can read online or download to read it later. Before starting the reading or downloading, here is the summary of the book that you can read. Millions of years beyond our time, our Earth has long since stopped spinning—and giant flora have taken over the sunlit half of the motionless world. Here humans are among the very few animal species that still exist, struggling to survive against enormous odds, but they have become small and weak, and their numbers have dwindled to almost nothing. When the aging leader of Gren’s tribe decrees it is time for the old ones to go “Up,” the younger are left to make their own way below. Although the journey will not be an easy one for young Gren, he sets off on an odyssey across a perilous world populated by carnivorous plants and other evolved vegetation. But any knowledge to be gained at the terminator—the forbidding boundary between the day world and the night—might well prove worthless for the boy and the companions he amasses along the way when the expanding sun goes nova and their Earth is no more.
Brief Summary Hothouse by Brian W. Aldiss
This novel was based upon a short story by another title which I read in 1962. I remember the webs connecting earth with the moon. Odd, as I can’t remember what I ate for breakfast today. The story is full of surprises, none of them so very pleasant. A rousing romp through the fading last days of Earth. The characters are as simple, smart, and unlikable as they need to be. This is made evident at the end of the story.. There was a great blueprint laid out for a sequel, but I am not aware of it ever being written. I have enjoyed reading SciFi for over 60 years, and I particularly enjoy a story lacking technobabble and space opera.
