5.0 out of 5 stars Thrilled to find again - great book!, 8 Feb 2004
By A Customer
When I originally read this book in the early 80's I was so riveted I had to call in sick to work so I could finish it! Tremendous read. Both my mother and I looked at each other and wondered if it really happened and had to check the book again to see if it really said "novel." Gave many, many copies away over the years, unfortunately including my own. THEN found out it was out of print. Thrilled it's back (in the UK anyway) and buying for my mom and I again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book, 15 Sep 2003
By A Customer
Mission is my favourite book of all time. I must have read it at least a dozen times and could read it a dozen more - I see something new each time.
It is funny, astonishing and it questions everything that you have ever been told about life and the cosmos!
The characters are very true to life; fallible, funny and 'down to earth'
I could not put it down - I just had to find out what happened in the end. Incidentally, whatever you imagine you will never guess the ending!

5.0 out of 5 stars A memorable read and quite thought provoking, 1 Aug 2000
By A Customer
I first read "Mission" in 1982 and have reread it several times. I've also bought this for friends and passed on dozens of copies. It's out of print in the US so I treasure my copies. This novel is quite thoughtful, suspenseful, and the sharply drawn characters drive the plot to an amazing finish that will have you turning back to page one as soon as you finish the novel. A GREAT book that will have a following for ages. I loved this book!
