    Better late than never
  

*by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on 9 August 2017*

I rediscovered this book series recently after years of silence. I was an old fan, in fact I am fan #35  Lady Sirona Abrov Zeor in the Founding 400 in this very book. I promised $25 dollars in 1996 to buy a hard copy but the publishing deal fell through to bring this book to life then and life moved on and I fell out of fandom and regret it.I bought the entire series in kindle format and I am reading them in order, this being the third of the foundation of the house holding books ( First Channel, Channels Destiny,  Ferris Channel, House of Zeor) I had read all of them before except this one which I just finished. This was the last for me  and I feel is the best. In First Channel we meet Rimon Farris and the idea that Sime and Gen can live together, in Channel Destiny his son Zeth takes the idea across borders, But it is in the third book where the magickal aspects of the Farris Channel are explored and I feel set the groundwork for the mystical aspects of the Farrises that rings through the series, across universes and timelines. After reading Farris Channel all the minor statements and things alluded to in other novels and fan fictions makes sense. It all comes together. It is a reminder this is science fiction and FANTASY. I just am sorry this book wasn't printed in 1996 as planned  things would have been so much more enjoyed so more sooner.What I found most interesting was the origin of the name Zeor for the house Zeor. I found the series in the 80's with First Channel and read it as Romantic sci fi fodder to be pleasantly surprised. I then found House of Zeor and was so taken with the idea of a House holding where the idea of excellence as a house virtue took me to such a person degree in the 80's during my divorce I considered changing my legal  last name to Zeor. But I had never heard the name before or since, or anything else about it and held back.  As i said, single parenthood moved life on and I fell out of fandom and time to read.Then Farris Channel came along and gives us the origin of the illustrious House of Zeor Name. A child's game where one tries to better your score form the time before. it doesn't matter if you failed, you will always try again AND TO IT BETTER THE NEXT TIME. I was stunned this is the origin of the illustrious House of Zeor? A pre-modern version of candy crush? At first I was pretty offended, then as the story developed and I saw the theme weave through the story  saw it develop. Having read the story line over the years, I knew it was the development of the house, I knew it happening so in a way I knew what I was watching for like was like I was watching the founding fathers write the Gettysburg Address, in that stuffy room in July....things didn't make sense then, but minor statements made by long dead characters who echo through the series and this was where it would come from. I found myself disconnecting and literally sitting down with my kindle and reading this book cover t cover in a day (yes I am a voracious reader) I literally couldn't put it down and by the time I write this i am 10 chapters into Ambrov Keon. I have read most of the series on the last 30 years and plan to reread the entire series in order, but so far this book has been my favorite in both the series. I love the mystical aspects as well as the scifi sime~gen aspects and this Books delivers both beautifully.I never read reviews of books ( I don't care what other's views of books are they usually don't read for the same things I do anyway) and have never wrote a review of a book but i did one for Farris Channel. I was one of the Founding 400 of the book #35 Lady Sirona Abrov Zeor hehehehe life had gotten in the way, raising a child, single, working and going to school, and I had fallen out of fandom.Well, Farris channel had brought out all I loved in Sime ~Gen: the house holding era, the Farrise's and their exotic thoroughbred "look what the weird stuff we can do!" and they mystical with the gypsies and the wayfarer and the starred cross. I was in high hog heaven I literally cancelled my appointments, disengaged from life, and read for >26 hours and read the book in one sitting. Yeah that's right 389 pages in in 26 hours.What I found interesting was the origin of the name Zeor a children's game where you do some little thing try to improve your score. It doesn't matter your score, doesn't matter you failed, you will try again, and do better next time! Its a children's chant.At first I was pretty offended. I considered changing my name in the 80's to name my self after a pre industrial candy crush? But as the game was shown and the idea developed I saw how it developed into Zeor's theory of excellence. "It doesn't matter where you start, start, try, evaluate, do it again and keep doing it again each time doing it better. Do it, evaluate then and then do better."It wasn't until Farris Channel this is so plainly and clearly stated. Always before it is always some unreachable Farris ideal of excellence no human can reach; only the Farriss's can reach with weird genes. But when you realize ts based on a child's game, a concept a pre-scooler can grasp......"Try, Do, do it again, and do it better..." That is all Zeor asks and it takes your life and soul to achieve.Lady Sirona Abrov Zeor

    The Wait was Worth it!
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on 9 February 2012*

This is a very long awaited book in the Sime~Gen Universe, this book is an amazing addition to the universe and I highly recommend it.Farris Channel is the story of the beginning of the House of Zeor, a householding that was well established at the time of the first book in the series of the same name.  There were so many open questions about how things could get to that point, First Channel and Channel's Destiny were written to help fill in the gaps on how Channels came on the scene and could keep Simes from killing Gens.  This book was originally going to be published as a hardcover, but the deal fell through, then later as a trade paperback and that company dropped the ball.  Over 400 fans had signed up that they were willing to pay $25 for a hardcover of this book beginning way back in 1996.  Those who chose names have their name in print in this book.  Naming the Villain in this book was a contest and the winners are in this book.  All of this is pure gravy covering the story of how Fort Rimon became the House of Zeor and it is all done so well that the reader is engaged the entire book, almost 400 pages.It would be hard to talk about a lot of the specifics without giving away too much of the story, which keeps you on edge until the very end of the book.  Del Rimon Farris is the main character trying to shore up the Fort system first established in First Channel but other Forts are failing for various reasons and the remnants are making their way to Fort Rimon, putting a tremendous strain on their resources.  In addition to the beginning of the House of Zeor, there are also glimpses of the end of the House of Zeor far in the distant future when space travel and other planets are taken for granted.Like any good story, this book is filled with ups and downs, successes and failures, hope and despair, but the main emphasis is that the future is well worth the effort.  This entire series is one which I read again every few years in various orders and it seems that something new arises each time I read them.  Farris Channel will be a book I look forward to reading again and see what other lessons I can glean from it.  GREAT!

    A long awaiting Answer
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on 26 April 2012*

A must have for all Sime-Gen fans! It answers one of my long-wondered questions - "What is meant by RECEIVING Zeor? And why is that so important for a Sectuib?" This is a well-written, fast paced story with characters that pull you in to the wonderfully scary, beautiful world that is the sime-gen universe.  If you are new to the sime-gen stories, please start with one of the other books. I would recommend either House of Zeor, or First Channel.  Also if you are new to this, I envy you your journey of discovery! I'll never forget the sense of wonder I felt when reading House of Zeor for the first time as a teenager.  I recently went back and re-read all the books in preparation for The Farris Channel. It stands up well and as an adult I discovered many missed ideas from the first read.  Highly recommended.
