Hopeland

By Ian McDonald
Hopeland by Ian McDonald digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A time-traveling, futuristic saga of a family trying to outlast and remake a universe with a power unlike any we've seen before.

When Raisa Hopeland, determined to win her race to become the next electromancer of London, bumps into Amon Brightbourne—tweed-suited, otherworldly, guided by the Grace—in the middle of a London riot, she sets in motion a series of events which will span decades, continents and a series of events which will change the world.

From rioting London to geothermal Iceland to the climate-struck islands of Polynesia, from birth to life to death, from tranquillity to terror to joy, Raisa’s journey will encompass the world. But one thing will always be true.

Hopeland is family—and family is dangerous.

Hopeland Reviews

3.5
“An amazing book. Magical realism born from low-key urban fantasy that journeys and eddies into almost solar-punk futurism.”
“Not a lot I liked about this book. I disliked the characters, the prose, the extra detail chapters etc.<br/><br/>I read a few reviews that said the book completely changes a third of the way in. And then I realised I was no way near a third in. And so, I gave up. <br/><br/>I don't want to read the word kynnd ever again. (How do you even say it?)<br/><br/>Sorry book club! ”
