Marvelous,
By A Customer
This review is from: Blue Limbo (Hardcover)
I stumbled upon Mr. Green's book Blue Limbo in the library, and once I had read several pages I knew I was reading great fiction. Oddly enough the writing reminded me of another author I love--i.e., Paco Ignacio Taibo III. Both writers manage to pack a great deal insight, humor, and immmense sadness into very small packages. Although the science fiction component of the book is small, a cop in the near future, I think it serves as a great context for a character, Mitch Helwig, who is deeply entrenched in the past and struggling to make a present for himself. The humor is dark and very funny, and the characters relationships cut straight to the heart. This is a great novel, now if I can only find Barking dogs...

This review is from: Blue Limbo (Hardcover)
Well, I would not give it a 4, but hey. I am not much for sci-fi, but I am an opened minded person. The book was not that hard to belive, though I wonder if Green got money for using all those plugs for the products in the book. It was O.k. just dont expect to much from it.It will pa...ss the time

Voracious reading, with a heart & soul!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Blue Limbo (Mass Market Paperback)
Hard-boiled crime drama in the 21st century. I was pleasantly surprised how well it drew me in, since I generally prefer far future SF. Green starts the action from the get go, and his crisp straight-forward writing made my eyes hungrily consume the pages. He also managed to give the story a strong character focus, instead of relying on non-stop action. While the SF element of the book spotlights the effects on society of the introduction of the first sort-of successful revival of the dead from cryonic suspention, the heart & soul of the drama shows the troubles in life for those that are the "thin blue line", showing that tomorrow's tomorrow may not be so different than today. Technology grows and changes, but people are people.

this is the best sci-fi book ive read this year!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Blue Limbo (Mass Market Paperback)
for a very short book, blue limbo is packed with emotion and adventure. terence green is a writer to watch. the characters are very real, i could feel the pain in mitch helwig when he split up with his ex-wife. i would highly recommend this book to fans of science fiction and people who dont read sci-fi books. i hope the paperback edition does well for mr. green. jim sbicca
