Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. As other commenters have said — the noir-ish beginning, while having an attractive tone, doesn't work well to give the reader a sense of sympathy with the protagonist. The starflight portion is relatively standard Golden Age storytelling. Not Brackett's finest. ( ) The story is dated like many 60s SF books but full of really great ideas. Brackett was a prolific SF writer. Starting in the 1940s, she wrote a couple of dozen SF books and made living for years writing short stories for multiple pulp SF magazines. Eventually she wrote for TV and film. I will read more books by this pioneer of classic SF. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

And Arch Comyn is determined to be the one to solve the mystery. *** But is he, and the rest of mankind, ready for whatever awaits us beyond the Big Jump? Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
