	Harry Turtledove: Homeward Bound
		Moreso than in the previous books, Homeward Bound looks at the fish out of water, whether it is the humans now making their way across Home, Kassquit, the human raised as a member of the empire, or the Lizards who have returned Home after being tainted by their long exposure to human civilizations.
		Homeward Bound is meant to serve as a conclusion to the earlier series, and it does tie up many of the loose strings.
		However, despite the continuation of specific characters, the feel of Homeward Bound is so different from the earlier books, that it hardly seems as if it is in the same series, belonging more to the space opera sub-genre than the alternate history sub-genre in which the other books reside.

	Homeward
		The ''Homeward Bound'' film series is comprised of two films released in the 1990s by Walt Disney Productions that are loosely based on their 1960s adventure/nature film "The Incredible Journey" which was based on the best-selling book by Canadian author Shella Burnfeld.
		The films focused on the adventures of two dogs, an elderly golden retriever named Shadow (voiced by Don Ameche), an excitable American bulldog known as Chance (voiced by Michael J. Fox), and a Himalayan cat named Sassy (voiced by Sally Field), who are separated from their humans while on vacation.
		Homeward Bound is also the title of a science fiction and alternate history novel by Harry Turtledove, the eighth in his ''Tosev timeline'' fictional universe, released in 2004.

	THE ROMANCE READER reviews: Homeward Bound by Marin Thomas
		Homeward Bound is a charming tale of two wary characters who learn to have faith not only in themselves, but in the love they have for each other.
		Homeward Bound is a charming tale with witty characters and a well-crafted subplot.
		One of the dangers of setting a novel in a small town is that you have to create a believable setting and colorful characters.

	Mennonite Life - June 2005 - Reimer commentary
		This "Mennonite" novel obviously enjoys a wide appeal among non-Mennonite readers and critics, but has raised the hackles of some Mennonite readers who know the Steinbach community and see the novel as a vicious attack against the town and, even more importantly, against the very principles of Mennonite faith and practice.
		The temptation to misread a novel from a historical perspective is almost irresistible when the reader is personally familiar with its setting.
		The German novelist Novalis claimed that, "Novels arise out of the shortcomings of history." History is earth-bound by the "facts" we associate with the "real" world and unable to soar freely with the imagination, as fiction does.

		Cooper's novels played a key role in the perception of Native Americans and thus how they were treated consequently.
		It was this land that was often the backdrop for Cooper's novels.
		Yet another unrealstic fact in the novel comes to light when we find out that even though Natty was raised by Indians he miraculously has a better sense of morals, judgement, and wit than those who raised him.

	Homeward Bound - Review - Show me the way to go home.
		A well known distinctive voice will conjure up an image in the audience’s imagination, so its important the right voice is chosen to portray the animals and this in my opinion is why Homeward Bound works so well.
		Often a remake of older films produce great visual effects but nothing new when compared to the original and leaves the audience somewhat let down as their expectations aren’t met.
		Homeward Bound is an adventure of love, courage and devotion that may very well have you reaching for the tissues.

	Homeward Bound
		Homeward Bound, as the title implies, concerns a voyage by an American starship to Home, the homeworld of the alien Race that invaded Earth in 1942.
		Turtledove, who never seems to be able to finish a series these days, brings Sam Yeager back for the ride; using a plot device I have significant doubts about.
		Almost all of Turtledove’s single-book novels are better than Homeward Bound, which reads more like an afterthought to the series than a single novel, but at the same time is less than part of the series.

	FILM REVIEW -- Disney Movie `Bound' to Charm / San Francisco animal trek is ideal matinee (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Taken on its own entirely hokey terms, ``Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco'' is a charming romp of a talking animal movie reuniting dog stars Chance and Shadow and cat Sassy in another fanciful adventure.
		Most of ``Homeward Bound II'' was shot in Vancouver, B.C., where it's cheaper to make movies, and anyone who's spent five minutes in either place will be able to tell.
		The film is far more verbal than the first ``Homeward Bound,'' when action sequences were played out in a formidable wilderness filled with raging rivers, predatory creatures and other perils.

	Homeward Bound, After All (washingtonpost.com)
		David Winkler, the 59-year-old protagonist of Anthony Doerr's debut novel, About Grace, is a dreamer but not, alas, of the carefree, California kind.
		As a result of this questionable gift, he also shares characteristics with two other legendary figures: Like Oedipus, Winkler is cursed with a terrible prophecy about himself that he does his utmost to avoid, and, like Odysseus, he must go on a long journey and endure many hardships before he can return home.
		A quest novel is, by its nature, about delayed gratification; still, even by Odyssean standards, Winkler can be an exasperating hero.

		I remember seeing the original Homeward Bound (it was called "The Incredible Journey") and it basically was the exact same story this one is, only more bland.
		It doesn't have the magic or personality this one does and Shadow sounds nothing like he used to (I think Don Ameche died before they made the second one).

		The six cats, left at home, fared better, although three of them sulkily refused to come inside when my fiance' came to feed them, forcing him to chase them around the yard for a couple of hours.
		Loosely based on Sheila Burnford's classic novel, from which an earlier Disney film was also adapted, "Homeward Bound" tells the story of Shadow, Sassy, and Chance, who are owned by Peter, Hope, and Jamie.
		But they can feel a kind of love for their owners, and that is what "Homeward Bound" is all about - the bond that can exist between animals and their people.

	village voice > film > The Last Letter; Kedma; L'Chayim Comrade Stalin by J. Hoberman
		The letter is sent to the novel's protagonist, a scientist in Moscow, by his aged mother Anna Semionovna, a doctor in German-occupied Berdichev; he receives it presumably after she has already gone to her death.
		Grossman's own mother was similarly obliterated when the Nazis swept through Ukraine during the summer of 1941—a disappearance that evidently obsessed the novelist for the rest of his life.
		As rendered in the novel, Grossman's "mother"—with her acute self-analysis, sudden rhapsodies, and sentimental compassion for the little people ("charming, eccentric, sad")—is the voice of 19th-century Russian literature.

		Looking back at it, one is struck by the strength of its prose and the life of its characters.

		With his epic novels of alternate history, Harry Turtledove shares a stunning vision of what might have been—and what might still be—if one moment in history were changed.
		With its extraordinary cast of characters—human, nonhuman, and some in between—Homeward Bound is a fascinating contemplation of cultures, armies, and individuals in collision.
		From the novelist USA Today calls "the leading author of alternate history," this is a novel of vision, adventure, and constant, astounding surprise.

		Before I was a quarter of the way through the novel, I had read at least a dozen times how the Race had been possessors of an advanced starfaring technological civilization when Cro-Magnons were still taking over from Neanderthals.
		"Homeward Bound," the supposed "conclusion" to his Lizardwars sextet, is nothing more than the latest example of that trend.
		The first thing to understand about this book to decide whether you would be one of those who love it or one of those who hate it, is that the "Alternative History" element is very small indeed.

		Look Homeward, Angel is an elaborate and moving coming-of-age story about Eugene Gant, a restless and energetic character whose passion to experience life takes him from his small, rural hometown in North Carolina to Harvard University and the city of Boston.
		The novel's pattern is artfully simple — a small town, a large family, high school and college — yet the characters are monumental in their graphic individuality and personality.
		Through his rich, ornate prose, Wolfe evokes the extraordinarily vivid family of the Gants, and with equal detail, the remarkable peculiarities of small-town life and the pain and upheaval of a boy who must leave both.
