BOOKSCAN #9

RITE OF PASSAGE by Alexei Panshin Timescape, 1982 I had high expectations of this book but it left me disappointed. The story is a first person account in the voice of a teenage girl living in a spaceship world that was akin to Heinlein's "Universe".  Things wrong with the book: - Mia Havero, the main character, is annoying. - The world-building is inconsistent, illogical in several aspects. - The book seems padded in spite of it being only 239 pages long. However, there are 2 passages in the book that are brilliant. These passages are Mia's views on ethics, utilitarianism and stoicism. These short passages are better than whole theses on these philosophies. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/zAUjXn2wieEexcHt/?mibextid=oFDknk
