4.0 out of 5 stars Solid everyday possible future that brings Sci-fi home, 22 Aug 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Rogue Star (Firestar Saga) (Paperback)

Good follow up to Firestar. The Sci-Fi in this book could well become reality and makes one understand the need for a different route to space other than the one we are on. Science Fiction might be the wrong moniker for this book, perhaps adventure...Can't wait for Lodestar...

1.0 out of 5 stars Where's the 'Sci' part of the SciFi., 16 Aug 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Rogue Star (Firestar Saga) (Paperback)

Boring. Very little science in this science fiction book. The reviewers on the back cover must not have read the same version of this book that I did.

1.0 out of 5 stars Always seems like it's about to get good, but never does, 7 Jun 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Rogue Star (Firestar Saga) (Paperback)

One word: dull. As I read, it always seemed like something was about to happen, but nothing ever did. The Flaco character was the only good thing in this book, and his sections are the only ones I enjoyed. Everything else was too long, drawn out, and there were too many characters, many of which had very little to say. Save yourself some time and skip this one.
