Glimmering

Finishing this book completes my challenge of reading a dozen books by the prolific Elizabeths of Science Fiction and Fantasy. This is the third book by Hand I read for the challenge. While her other books were fantasy and horror, this was science fiction. It concerns an apocalyptic event which sets the atmosphere on fire, creating a glimmering of colors. The society begins to decay and rival groups vie for power. It is a rather depressing book, but Hand takes it interesting places with a mix of gay and straight characters trying to survive in a nightmarish world. This book was nominated for a 1998 Arthur C Clarke award.
