The Warrior Who Carried Life is a fantasy novel novel by Canadian writer Geoff Ryman, published in 1985. [1]
It is the story of Cara, who learns witchcraft to get revenge on the Galu. [2]
Dave Langford reviewed The Warrior Who Carried Life for White Dwarf #66, and stated that "For the climax Ryman goes for broke; a sad and gentle coda saves his theme from the common fault of being too big to care about. There are glitches (the appalling poetry of the Secret Rose crashes to I earth when verbalized as 'Humanity was in danger of being replaced'), but Ryman is an author to watch." [2]
Colin Greenland reviewed The Warrior Who Carried Life for Imagine magazine, and stated that "Ryman draws on folklore other authors have forgotten, to create a dark fantasy at once familiar and deeply strange. Cara's quest through hell for vengeance on inhuman invaders has the clarity and conviction of a good nightmare. Geoff Ryman is the most gifted of new British fantasy writers by far." [3]
