Product Description
The Empire is dead,. The Rouiis continue. Tribe of tribes. First of the First. Survival beyond survival. The Roiiss continue. On the planet Roiissa in a remote galaxy, the Roiiss Elders labour and struggle over the primal problem of existence - survival. Their past, shrouded in the mists of millennia, produced extraordinary discoveries and sciences but still no solution. While they concentrate their formidable intelligence on the 'Second Experiment', their servant Tec has his own ideas about survival. And he sets in motion a new chain of events which span countless lightyears and aeons of time. But not even Tec can guess at the cataclysmic outcome of his actions...

One of the best sci-fi stories I've read!, 18 Jan 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Second Experiment (Hardcover)
Absolutely fabulous. Takes two completely different story lines (one involving a very powerful but self-centered reptilian race, the other involving humans just entering the era of faster-than-light travel) and interweaves them into a fascinating whole. One of the few books that I re-read every few years.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good detailed plot, from what i can remember., 19 Oct 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Second Experiment (Hardcover)
The story was an in depth account of an inferior life form living with what would undoubtly be a Deity in time to come. The subject was an artificial inteligence and abandoned from the employ of his creators once they had reached a sufficient level of development to be able to disregard thier material physiques. The story was warmly & intelligently written, further more I would love to read it again.
