5.0 out of 5 stars A fresh insight into the realistic science fiction world., 29 Nov 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Freedom's Landing (Catteni 1) (Paperback)
After reading many science fiction books and becoming bored by the same old routine this book relit my spark of interest.

As a purely impulse buy to widen my knowledge of writers I selected Freedom's Landing and Freedom's Choice.

By the end of the first chapter you feel you know Kris, and Zainal intimately and that the world Barevi is a world you live on.

The characters you meet are interesting and believable - you wouldn't be suprised to meet them walking down the street after you have read this book.

The book allows you to read the story on many levels whether simply taking it at face value or noting the 'equality for all' thread that runs through the book.

In closing as soon as I had finished 'Freedom's Landing' I immediately started 'Freedom's Choice' and I hope to review it soon.

3.0 out of 5 stars McCaffrey in a different vein, 14 Jan 2001
By Mr. R. C. Rutt "Chris" (Hertfordshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Freedom's Landing (Catteni 1) (Paperback)
Having been a Pern fan for many years, I found this a very different work.

Though very much a space opera, I have bought the sequels as it is compulsive reading. However, great literature it isn't, and the inventiveness I much admired in McCaffrey's Dragon series is thin on the page.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good plot, but not very well written., 24 Jul 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Freedom's Landing (Catteni 1) (Paperback)
This book starts with a very dramatic and interesting beginning, but the rest is a disapointment. Good idea of earth inhabitants being abandoned on an unknown planet , but after the first few chapters nothing dramatic happens and the earthlings just wander round the planet. Some may enjoy this book, but I found it rather dull.
