...I enjoyed After the Fall, Before the Fall, During the Fall a lot but I don't think it is a brilliant work. It surely has a lot to offer to the reader but some of the elements of this story didn't quite work for me. As science fiction novels go, you could do a lot worse though. Kress is writer who is always keenly aware of the impact of environment or technology on her characters, always adding a personal touch to what are usually stories that have a very large impact, often on a global scale. Even when not every element of the story falls into place, Kress is well worth reading. For someone who likes time travel stories or isn't bothered by Kress' use of Gaia theory, this book will probably be an excellent read.
