Tritcheon Hash

TRITCHEON HASH
by Sue Lange

(228pp book, $14.95, Metropolis Ink)

Review by Jessica Bublitz

While reading Tritcheon Hash by Sue Lange, a few things came to mind. First it seems like just another futuristic tale where the reader meets the main character and we start to get comfortable. Suddenly we find out that all the women left Earth to colonize their own planet. This wasn't going to be your average sci-fi novel.

The plot was pretty interesting. At first I wasn't getting too into it, but then I found myself looking forward to what was going to happen next. Most of the dialogue was back and forth between believable and forced, mainly because of the casual usage of made-up futuristic vocabulary. One downside is that there are a lot of long tangents focused on details explaining new inventions and alien utensils. Though the occasional explanation is important, they seemed to be too often and too long. The names and dialog reminded me of Harry Potter, which may draw in that fan base. With a character like Ricknoy you can't help but feel like you are dealing with the future military of Hogwarts.

There is a strange relationship between feminist principals and a romance novel that is unique. Lange's world is like The Handmaid's Tale infused with a good Fabio-covered supermarket paperback.

So as you can see this novel can take you across the universe and back. You may like the scientific explanations or the periodic steamy scene. You may like the girl empowerment or the Potter-like banter. I think a lot of people can find a laugh or contemplate the future sparked by this fun, broad novel aimed to please all sorts.
