Book Review: The Vanished Birds by Simon Jimenez

The Vanished Birds

The Vanished Birds by Simon Jimenez

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


The Vanished Birds is nothing short of stunning. Simon Jimenez manages to cover a thousand years of history on a galactic scope and somehow still tell a story as intimate as a lullaby. The planets, cultures, and personalities are richly envisioned. Everything feels immediate. Jimenez’s prose is perceptive, agile magic. The unique longing and wonder of this novel is hard to articulate beyond this: I will never forget it.
