![]() ![]() ![]() Gaea tells them, as she tells everyone who approaches her, that she might cure them if they become heroes. ![]() Wizard follows the adventures of two of these applicants, Robin the Nine-Fingered and Chris'fer Minor, who both come to Gaea to plead for cures to the extremely rare and untreatable diseases each suffers from. Applicants are constantly seeking an audience with Gaea to beg her for favors, or more accurately, miracles. (For ease of reference, I'm going to refer to the god herself as Gaea, and her world, which is also confusingly referred to as Gaea, as the Wheel.)Įarth has opened up diplomatic relations with Gaea, and tourism within the Wheel is booming. Cirocco Jones (the titular Wizard) and Gaby Plauget are both struggling with their own immortality as well as with the three million year old being called Gaea, who is pretty much insane and spends most of her time watching movies in the hub with her sycophants while continuing to do anything she wants with her giant wheel of a world that orbits Saturn. The story begins 75 years after the events in Titan. Although I'm not including spoilers, the fact that this is the second book of a trilogy means that if you haven't read the first book, I'm going to spoil some of it for you. This is a review of Wizard, the second book of John Varley's Gaean trilogy. ![]()
