Read this a considerable time after the other two in the trilogy. Although ok, was not the "dessert" I was expecting.

The Doors of the Universe Sylvia Louise Engdahl 9780689308079 Books Reviews

Third part of this trilogy by Sylvia Engdahl. This story was again very good, branching out in new directions from the other two in an intelligent manner that really added something to the whole. There are perhaps some problems with this book for sci-fi purists. The difficulty is that if I describe them, they will constitute plot spoilers. In any case, fans of Star Trek or even of the recent film "Avatar" will not mind those problems at all, taking the book for its allegorical value rather than its actual scientific likelihood. Indeed, even fans of the sci-fi purists such as Clark or Asimov will find plenty to enjoy here I think.

In terms of characterisation, I think characters in these books tend to have goals that are a little too rigid throughout their lives, and populations are a little to homogenous. But again, this works fine for the allegorical aspect.

But those problems aside, this is still an original and intelligent work that will make you think, and which really deserves to be much better known.

These books were republished in the 1990s in a single volume called Children of the Star.
