(REAL NAME)   
Vernor Vinge Fans, I recommend all of his books but please note 'The Peace War' and 'Marooned In Realtime' are printed as one book called 'Across Realtime' don't waste your money buying all three, as Amazon recommends!

4.0 out of 5 stars Novel use of stasis, 12 May 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Peace War (Hardcover)
The premise of the book that a self enveloping stasis field can be used as the ultimate weapon by displacing people, machines or cities from the rest of the world - the only problem when will the stasis fields collapse?
