1.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother to pop your cherry, 22 April 2004

L D Gault (Sonning, Berkshire) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Virgin Planet (Paperback)

Combining pedestrian dialogue, simple plotting that can be seen way in advance, and a basic premise that must have appeared sexist even way back when it was written in 1959, Virgin Planet plums new depths of sheer awfulness.

The fact that, early on in the book, the hero of the story jokes with a friend about the possibility of landing on a planet soley populated by women before embarking on his epic journey should act as enough warning as to the quality of the story, however for those that do persevere onwards the story does provide unintentional hilarity by way of compensation.
