Angels' Fall is "Frank Herbert lite". Not as deep or cerebral as his other works, but the characters still have some nuance and the action moves at a fairly brisk pace. A good, short read with an ending that sort of sneaks up on you. (

It had been so long I had honestly forgotten what an amazing writer Frank Herbert was. This previously unpublished work is a great adventure story set in the Amazonian jungle and is proof, if proof were needed, that Frank Herbert did not only write great Science Fiction but could turn his hand to any genre with equal skill. I know there are other early work that were turned down by publishers at the time (more fool them). I can only hope they will also soon see the light of day because, on the evidence of Angels' Fall, I will be first in the queue to buy them. (
