Review:It is fascinating to see the differences and similarities between the characters, plot, and overriding imaginary future depicted here and those of the TV series. The books in this series are the work of an imaginative and talented writer. Well worth reading. Read more

Review:The author needs to get acquainted with Physics a bit.

Review:Everyone knows this book and most love it. When I read it 40 years ago I was too young to appreciate it.

You won't miss much by skipping this book, yet it does answer many of the lingering questions from River God.

Unlike Smith's book, there has been no happy ending.

Smith's protagonist, Craig Mellow, is a Rhodesian novel... Read more
