- Bewertet in Deutschland am 4. März 201637 (!) Jahre nach Erstveröffentlichung von Titan und 33 Jahre nach Demons Erstveröffentlichung habe ich alle drei Bücher endlich gelesen. Für mich war "Demon" Abschluss und Höhepunkt, nach dem leichten Hänger (subjektiv) mit "Wizard". Ich kenne kaum ein Buch aus der Zeit, dass so modern wirkt, es könnte gerade erst erschienen sein. Die verschiedenen Konstellationen von Beziehungen (ja auch viele die heutzutage kontrovers diskutiert werden), politische Verwicklungen, wie-sollte-eine-Gesellschaft (Untaten bestrafen, nicht Volksgruppen) sein und vor allem wie tolerant (oder intolerant), in all dem und mehr ist John Varley ein Pionier (für mich). Absolut lesenswert!
- Bewertet in Deutschland am 18. Januar 2000First, the commentarys must bet completed with the one I made to Titan.
When I start to read this book (I read it by mistake before Titan and Wizard) I start to read the last page so that during the book I tried to make a connection between the point where I was and the end... I read the last page, I read the two last pages and I read the three last pages, I start to read from the beginning and I still was amazed with the end. I confess that if I started to read the trilogy from Titan In the end shoure I had assassin feelings to Varley because ... the end It's so open...! every time that I read the trilogy I end it with more questions than anwsers, I felt a very strong need for a fourth episode. I even thought to try to talk with Varley to request him an explanation for the end, what he was thinking behind the words writen:"She opened her wings and flew away", was just a methaphor, because she was free of the responsability of the life of a specie, or like she thought "strangest things had happened" and really flew away? .
- Bewertet in Deutschland am 16. November 1999I hadn't read any science fiction in over 12 years when my wife, a voracious reader who reads a great variety of work but little sci-fi, recommended this trilogy (she's read it at least three times). This is what great reading is about: compelling, fascinating characters you love, an interesting plot that slowly reveals itself, drama, humor, irony and a marvelous imagination at work. It has renewed my interest in this field. It is also the only trilogy I've read where every book was stronger than the previous one versus the middle book being the weak one. The other viewers' comments are accurate. Bear with Varley's long descriptions of the planetary structure Gaea and you will be in for a delicious read.
- Bewertet in Deutschland am 20. Januar 2000I can't get enough of these books. John Varley really needs to write a fourth book before I go insane waiting for it. The trilogy starts out kind of difficult to read- there's alot of technical plot establishment, but the third book wraps it all up beautifully. Now if I could only find them in hardcover...
- Bewertet in Deutschland am 20. Oktober 1997Varley's "Gaeia" trilogy is my favorite set of books, and Demon is a satisfying conclusion to it. The plot is more action-driven than the first two books, but while I am not always a fan of action Varley's writing makes it compelling and suspenseful. I highly reccommend this book to everyone, as well as anything else Mr. Varley has written!

RG da RomaBewertet in Italien am 4. September 20203,0 von 5 Sternen Uno degli autori importanti della fantascienza contemporanea
Avevo letto altri libri di John Varley su Titano (satellite di Saturno) e sulla strana creatura che ne aveva in qualche modo plasmato l'evoluzione.
I protagonisti della storia sono in parte dei terrestri che si aggregano ad un equipaggio della NASA per fare un viaggio quasi turistico su Titano, i cui abitanti ormai hanno relazioni stabili con la Terra. Però poi finiscono per restare su Titano molto molto tempo.
Vi sono delle geniali invenzioni, come i Titanidi, che assomigliano a dei centauri, ma sono decisamente più complessi, anche dal punto di vista mentale, e vi sono anche delle lungaggini che forse Varley avrebbe potuto evitare.
Nel complesso, un libro gradevole e anche intrigante per gli amanti di fantascienza.
La mia edizione è quella originale americana, ma esiste anche la traduzione italiana dei tre libri che compongono questa trilogia.

Hampshire90Bewertet in Großbritannien am 19. Dezember 20185,0 von 5 Sternen Fantastic sequel to an awesome set of three
One of the best sci-fi trilogies ever written! Though it must be nearly 40 years old now it's still very contemporary. This is the concluding story to the adventures of a crew presumed lost whilst investigating a very large mysterious object orbiting Saturn. The human race has never been in such jeopardy.
The Gaia Trilogy is Titan, Wizard and this book Demon. The first two are available on Amazon.co.uk but I had to go to Amazon.com to find this edition from a seller who luckily for me had it available for about £3. It arrived from America a week later and it was free postage!
These books would make epic feature films for sure.

The Library of BabelBewertet in den USA am14. Februar 20245,0 von 5 Sternen At the End of the World
This is the end of one of the greatest masterworks of science fiction ever conceived. Varley's imagination and world-building have no restraint or even an iota of self-consciousness as he barrels through Cirocco Jones' final confrontation with Gaea, the Mad Titan. The story finally unravels the truth behind Gaea's madness, her methods, and how the whole system works in the first place, and why it now seems to be malfunctioning. Everyone who's read this far will be amply rewarded by the conclusion. This is the first review I've written for any of the books in the series, I figure I will go back later and write reviews for the other two, maybe just for the chance to relive them a little.
John Varley was a big deal back in his day, but you don't hear about him much these days. I think it's because even back when the series was first published, it was too far ahead of its time, and unfortunately it still is. At the risk of sounding like an old man shouting at the birds, as our culture regresses, as academia declines into corporate groupthink and human thought backslides into post-modernist gumbo, the Gaea trilogy will just get further and further away.
It's almost like we're being manipulated by a mysterious presence in Saturn's orbit, plotting our planet's destruction and readying her "mercy" ships to spirit us away into her clutches. Oh well! My bags are packed. I hear Hyperion's nice and sunny this time of... well, it's always nice and sunny.
